The Batwa literacy rate is just 12 percent compared to over 75 percent (2012) of non-Batwa in the same area. Education among the Batwa population has been and remains elusive. But, we must appreciate its relevance in fueling community transformation and promoting equity and equality, as well as a mindset change.
With education, the Batwa people will have a sense of equality and agility in regard to development. The opportunities that come with education help in the elimination of disparity that has affected them in terms of social and gender discriminations. They have mostly been marginalized and fallen victim to desperation and stigma.
They may be duped into entering illegal businesses, signing false documents among other things because they do not possess the right education to avoid it. A lot is still needed for this to actually be achieved among the Batwa and thus, many resources are still needed in order for Batwa children to enroll and stay in school.
Even then, government schools have consistently ignored those arguing that they can’t afford the fees, lack scholastic materials , food for lunch plus uniforms and shoes.
