Water and sanitation

In 2018, water was not available at the school; the village spring is at 15 minutes walk. There were no specific facilities for girls handling menstrual hygiene;[2] this is a major reason for adolescent girls dropping out from school.[3][4] There was only a small toilet shed for the teachers.[2]

Transportation

All children travel to school on foot. Many students will walk more than an hour, twice a day, to come to school.[2]

gollark: That sounds like what people might call "sad".
gollark: Well, yes, that is basically a synonym.
gollark: Anyway, you seem to be treating emotions as... actual physical properties of some sort. They're *not*. They're emergent behavior in people's brains, they're not subject to conservation laws or something any more than the amount of blue on my computer screen is.
