KABUL: The United Nations Development Programme says reliable solar electricity has improved learning conditions and increased student attendance at a school in Afghanistan.
In a 5 November statement, UNDP said the lack of dependable power had been a major challenge at the facility; installing solar energy eased those difficulties and enabled more students to attend classes. The agency stressed that sustainable energy can strengthen education quality and learning opportunities.
Many Afghan schools still face limited facilities and unreliable electricity, making renewable solar power especially important for communities with weak grid access.
