answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/07/2019 answer text <p>Since the release of its 2017 Nutrition Position Paper, DFID has focused on meaningfully integrating nutrition across relevant aspects of its portfolio, particularly health, agriculture, social protection, humanitarian and economic development. For example, we are working with others to improve the impact of the Kenya Hunger Safety Net Programme on nutrition and we are integrating key nutrition services in our wider health programmes such as in South Sudan and DRC.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/07/2018 answer text <p>Afghanistan has seen huge progress in the provision of education services – the school enrolment rate has increased from under 1 million children in 2001 to over 9 million today. However, there is still a long way to go. A recent report by UNICEF and the Afghan Ministry of Education estimates that nearly half of school-age children – some 3.7 million children - are out of school. Approximately 60% of Afghanistan’s out-of-school-children are girls. There are too few schools in Afghanistan, and many children cannot access school without travelling long distances over insecure environments. Educational provision often does not take into account the particular needs of girls: for example schools in many provinces lack female teachers, sanitation facilities and boundary walls. The UK is supporting the Government of Afghanistan to improve access to education services for all – particularly girls and the most marginalised – and to improve the <em>quality</em> of those services. We are doing this by investing in innovative and scalable education programmes for girls, as well as technical and system-strengthening support to the Ministry of Education.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 23/07/2018 15:06:21 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt
