of education of children, Keramati went on to say that the Islamic Republic
of Iran and the UNICEF had agreed about a five year (2005-2009) program.

program was based on regaining the rights of boys, girls and vulnerable
women.
"All those who are in jeopardy and are exposed to any kind of violence in
the 12 chosen provinces of Iran and also the three provinces of Hormozgan,
Sistan and Balouchestan and west Azerbaijan will be under the cover and
support of this organization with the stated conditions," she added.

decrease the inequality regarding girls aged 6-12 in the chosen provinces,"
she said.
