A pottery in one of the poorest quarters of Cairo, nine-year-old Mohammed works here seven 00:00:00
hours a day. His daily wage is about one euro. 00:00:27
Since the 1990s, school is mandatory for all children in Egypt, but not all of them have 00:00:53
time to attend classes. Child labour is illegal but common in Cairo, as in many other parts 00:00:58
of the country. About 10% of the Egyptian children between 6 and 15 are working, many 00:01:04
of them in hazardous circumstances. Most remain illiterate, because they must support their 00:01:09
family's income, like Mohammed does. 00:01:14
So we didn't try to be very much utopian about the problem and to say that we're going to 00:01:21
bring all kids working in the market back to school and end the problem. This is not 00:01:29
doable. 00:01:33
First of all is to try to help working kids who attend schools to keep on going with their 00:01:34
education. 00:01:48
With support from the EU, the local primary school is now offering additional classes 00:01:56
for working children in the afternoons, following the official syllabus, so the kids can get 00:02:00
back to a school career. Mohammed is going to school for three hours every day, first 00:02:05
of all learning reading and writing. 00:02:10
The mountains of the lower Caucasus in the south of Georgia. The remote border region 00:02:25
is mainly populated by Armenians. Most of them do not speak the Georgian language, and 00:02:33
this increases their isolation within Georgian society. 23-year-old Gayane is a member of 00:02:37
the Armenian minority. She lives in the village of Tikruti, close to the border. 00:02:43
In Akhaltsikeh, the capital of the region, an adult education centre is helping the Armenian 00:02:47
minority, supported by the European Union. With small courses over a couple of months, 00:03:17
Armenians and Georgians attend language classes and vocational training in modern and traditional 00:03:23
After attending classes in the Georgian language, economics and computer skills, Gayane has 00:03:59
already made a small business plan, for her own benefit and for the development of her 00:04:04
local community. 00:04:08
Amman, capital of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan in the Middle East. On the country's 00:04:09
way to democratic reforms, a new weekly newspaper supplement was launched, dedicated to the 00:04:36
work of the parliament. The Jordan journalist Nidal Manzur is the editor. 00:04:41
In the volatile region of the Middle East, Jordan is perceived as politically stable 00:05:01
and advanced in terms of political reforms. Nevertheless, Al-Parlamani is one of the 00:05:05
few independent newspapers. 00:05:11
Nidal Manzur is running the Centre for Defending the Freedom of Journalism. Besides publishing 00:05:35
the Al-Parlamani paper, the organisation offers professional training and legal support for 00:05:41
journalists. From his point of view, the development of a free press will contribute to the stabilisation 00:05:45
of the whole region. 00:05:51
