Landschulprogramm

Schools in rural areas

This program was intended to support the expanse and renewal of schools in rural areas. It provided help to build a school with a roof and window, with chairs and tables and a chalkboard. To make sure that the living area for the teacher was comfortable enough for a teacher to stay.

Until the year 2000 about 22 Villages could be supported. In the meantime – made possible by new laws – the mayor’s office of Independencia has taken over building and equipping these schools.
