Temporary education centres open for flood-displaced children in Nepal

Children displaced by flash floods in Nepal are attending a temporary education centre in Nuwakot, according to France 24 International.

The centres are providing displaced children with access to education while aid organisations support communities affected by the flooding.

The United Nations estimates that buildings worth $158 million have been damaged. The basis and scope of the estimate were not detailed in the available report.

Nepal has warned that reconstruction could cost billions, although no confirmed figure or timeframe was provided.

The number of displaced children and temporary education centres operating has not been specified.
