Nearly one million children aged 9 to 14, including over 600,000 girls, are not part of the education system. One in three boys and one in two girls are not enrolled in school. Barely four out of ten children complete primary school.<\/p>\n<p>With an adult literacy rate of 32% (22% for women and 43% for men), the inability or difficulty to read and write remains a predominant phenomenon in Chad and continues to affect the most disadvantaged populations.
