The issue of taking money away from girls or harassing them is not
tolerated and is risking their education program in the country, the
team leader warns.
Akuja De Garang says anybody found practicing corruption on GESS cash
transfer will be dealt with according to the law.
Imke van der Honing, UK GESS officer calls on girls to speak out for
accountability to take place.
He also advises teachers not to look at other people’s benefit, but
support girls in education.
"We want to solve the issue of corruption once and for all" says
Hannah Rollings.
The officials were speaking to CRN during a workshop that brought GESS
team leaders from the ten former states of South Sudan.
They came together to discuss challenges, accountability, resource
management and work plan to move the program forward.
