SIERRA LEONE: Adult Literacy

Sierra Leone. Gbindi. March 2008
Adult literacy class in Gbindi. It often takes adults years to become literate, as family responsibilities make it difficult to have classes more than once or twice a week. The fact that a lot of students have difficulties even holding a pen properly, speaks volumes of the long struggle towards literacy.
