The World Bank Saturday approved $6.5 million to help poor children living in urban slums complete primary education as well as provide pre-vocational training to poor school-dropout youths in Cox’s Bazar. This additional financing to the Second Reaching Out of School Children (ROSC II) Project will enable about 39,000 slum children, aged between 8- to 14-years in eight city corporations to complete primary education. Further, the project, along with the additional financing, will enable about 8,500 out-of-school youth and adolescents of host communities in Cox’s Bazar, where influx by the Rohingya population created enormous pressure on the local people, to complete pre-vocational and enterprise development training.
