This will be a departure from the current situation in the county where deserving cases have not always received the support they need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image-131-1024x538.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3153\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image-131-1024x538.png 1024w, https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image-131-300x158.png 300w, https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image-131-768x403.png 768w, https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image-131.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Mukenya further highlights the need for the government to address the issue of inadequate infrastructure in schools. Many schools in the lake region lack proper classrooms, libraries, and laboratories, hindering the quality of education provided to students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;The civil society organizations argue that without adequate infrastructure, it is difficult for students to fully engage in their studies and reach their full potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, the organizations are calling for the government to prioritize teacher training and development. They argue that well-trained and motivated teachers are crucial for providing quality education to students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;However, they note that many teachers in the lake region lack the necessary training and support to effectively teach their students. The organizations urge the government to invest in continuous professional development programs for teachers and provide them with the resources they need to excel in their roles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, the civil society organizations are concerned about the lack of access to education for marginalized groups, such as children with disabilities and girls. They emphasize the importance of inclusive education and urge the government to implement policies and programs that ensure equal access to education for all children, regardless of their background or abilities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abigael Wanyama Civil society organizations in the lake region of the country are calling on the national government<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":3152,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false}}},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3151","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-education"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.11 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Lake region civil society urges government to implement promises - Tandao Media<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Mukenya;
