Grand Bassa County Superintendent Julia Duncan-Cassell says the 14-year civil war has affected the education of most women in the County.
 



Madam Cassell said this situation has caused most of the women to be uneducated.
 

Superintendent Duncan-Casssell spoke at the official launch of the education and vocational training program of Fawe branch in lower hardlandsville.
 

She urged the women to take advantage of the free education and vocational training program provided by Fawe in the County.
 

Madam Cassell pledged one acre of land for the construction of a local headquarters of FAWE in the county.
 

Giving the overview of the program, the National Coordinator of Fawe Winifred Deline said three hundred seventy-five girls are expected to benefit from the program.
 

She said the women would be taught skills in carpentry and tailoring for a one-year period.
