Iraqi Detainees Offered Educational, Vocational and Religious Programs Print E-mail
Friday, 18 January 2008
ImageBAGHDAD — Multi-National Forces-Iraq (MNF-I) provides multiple opportunities for more than 24,000 detainees in their care and custody to participate in educational, vocational and religious programs while detained in Theater Internment Facilities (TIF) in Iraq.Upon arrival at the TIF, detainees are evaluated to determine their educational and training levels, work experience and work interests, and religious alignment.  The evaluation provides a better understanding of the individuals in detention and their potential for inclusion in detainee reintegration programs.The evaluation process consistently reveals that many detainees have had little or no education, are under-employed and have only a basic understanding of their Islamic faith.  The  programs are designed to address deficiencies in these areas and work to disengage detainees from violence.The educational programs offered to detainees were developed in coordination with the Iraqi Ministry of Education and consist of six core subjects: Arabic, English, Math, Science, Civics and Geography.  The school is taught in concert with hired teaching professionals and volunteer detainees.  The number of participants in the program has increased steadily.

Vocational programs are offered to provide detainees with job training and skill development to increase their chances of being successful in the Iraqi workplace.  Detainees are offered training in carpentry, welding and ceramics.  The hope is that individuals leaving detention, with marketable skills for sufficient employment, will be detered from participating in anti-Coalition Forces activities for financial reasons.
