Adult education

14,000 adults learn to read

Illiteracy is a daily occurrence in the slums. Many adults remain day labourers and unskilled workers all their lives. Since 1978, AMG India has set up hundreds of smaller educational centres in the slums of the cities and in rural areas. Today, about 14,000 adults are learning to read and write. All learning materials are given to women and men free of charge. In addition, they receive essential information for their health care.
