According to UNESCO, in the last 5 years, the development and construction of roads to schools for children in many countries have been leveling off. There are areas whe-re roads are not accessible to schools, or roads are frequently flooded, making it more difficult for children to travel. Dangerous roads are also the main reason many children d-rop out of school.
Simple solutions to the problems have been proposed, such as building bridges, buying buses and hiring drivers. However, the lack of capital and the recurrence of natural disasters in many countries make it difficult to send children to school.
The images below show that in order to get "the word", children in many places have to go through roads that are not only arduous but also dangerous:
