As a result, pupils progress with great difficulties and many of them leave school without knowing how to read or write. As part of the educational program, Urgence Afrique helps teachers with material or monetary donations or with school supplies given at the start of the school year to improve the conditions of work. Finally, Urgence Afrique has also set up the Children?s Cabin, which allows accommodation of more than one hundred children within a frame that differs from school and is based on listening and interactivity. The aim is to offer better living conditions for the child and contribute to his or her self-development through manual work, artistic and physical activities. https://savezimbabwekids.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=192226240 192226240 Extracurricular missions in Zimbabwe In order to provide improved self-developmental opportunities for the children of Zimbabwe, Urgence Afrique has created the Children?s Cabin as a place which welcomes children of all ages.
