Headline UNKRA's Help to Korea: Education

Caption Description This little girl is typical of the thousands of children throughout the schools in Korea who are eager to learn, but there is a great shortage of classrooms in which to accommodate them.
Sixty-four per cent of South Korea's classrooms were destroyed, damaged or diverted to other uses during the fighting; 80% of the instructional equipment was lost and the teaching staff severely depleted. To meet the pressing need for increased educational facilities, the UN Korean Reconstruction Agency (UNKRA) provided approximately $8,500,000 during 1953-53 for educational projects, and has budgeted some $1,060,000 for classroom construction and repair in 1954, to cover repair of 450 damaged classrooms and construction of 240 permanent ones.
