The shortage of teachers has become a major issue in many countries, and Laos is no exception to this crisis. Facing a growing lack of teachers and a precarious economic situation, the government has been forced to seek innovative solutions to ensure the continuity of education in the country.
Currently, 86 soldiers are undergoing teacher training in the province of Savannakhet, where over 500 positions are available. Eventually, around 2,000 soldiers are expected to be trained to teach science and Lao language, after just six days of training.
