Red Sea University participates in a research project for multilingual education

Sudan is a multilingual country with approximately 70 different languages

The Red Sea University (Sudan), through its Beja Cultural Studies Centre, will participate in a research Project on rural Beja children sponsored by the Aun El-Sharief Gasim Centre For Sudanese Languages and the Ministry of Education of the Red Sea State. This project will be executed in the context of the Mother Tongue Based Multilingual Education (MTB MLE), a methodology designed to help speakers of minority languages towards effective learning.
This pilot project will be implemented in a number of schools of the state from pre-school to eighth grade. The results of this project will be used as a guide for other minority language groups in the country, in an effort to not exclude any child of education because of language barriers and to bring the right to education to all children while respecting their language and culture.
