Literacy/Education Development -The Aga Khan Development Network, Pemba, Mozambique
The Schools Project
I was able to meet with Marcelo Silberano, the regional director for The Aga Khan Development Network, to discuss his organization’s work in educational development in the Cabo Delgado Province of Mozambique, one of the most remote and least developed areas of the country, bordered by the Indian Ocean to the east, Tanzania to the north, and Niassa Province to the west. The Aga Khan Network has done outstanding work in developing all of the social sectors of development in many parts of the global south; here in Mozambique, they are working closely with the state and with other NGO’s to provide many critical services. Below is a transcript of the frank and interesting conversation I had with Mr. Silberano about the state of the local school systems, Aga Khans education programs, and the issue of school leadership at the local level. Mr. Silberano has been involved in both regional and national educational policy in Mozambique for over a decade, and we spoke in his office in Pemba, the provincial capital.
