O Washington Post publicou hj uma reportagem muito positiva sobre o programa "Bolsa Escola"...
Brazil's school stipend program is a strikingly promising and innovative social program, a relatively small public investment that goes a long way toward addressing hunger, literacy, child labor and exclusion, officials said. Since it began as a pilot program in Brasilia and satellite towns like Formosa seven years ago, the effort has nearly doubled the number of children attending school here, officials added. And though research remains incomplete, many educators and activists expect commensurate increases in literacy and nutrition.
O jornal americano não fala nada sobre o "Fome Zero", mas comenta a luta do Cristovam Buarque por mais verbas para o Bolsa Escola...
Education Minister Buarque and other proponents are seeking even more funding for the stipend program, which currently has a nationwide enrollment of about 5 million families and 9 million children. For the program to be really effective -- particularly in the densely populated urban areas -- stipends should be increased, Buarque said.
"It will be truly a pity if we cannot increase the stipend," Buarque said. "Just a real shame."
