This book highlights an inescapable fact: governments and the international community - the United Nations and Non- Governmental Organisations have failed to ensure that the education of young people remains a priority - indeed a fundamental human right. This book advances the international dialogue around the education of the young through non-formal education by identifying steps to ensure that our schools remain safe and nurturing environments even in the midst of the most difficult conditions. The book points to the legislative strategies to combat the impunity of attacks on schools, students (formal and non-formal) and teachers that has risen steadily in recent years in Zimbabwe.
