Luanda - The Social Policy Commission of the Cabinet Council evaluated on Monday the draft Presidential Decree approving the Legal Regime of the Adult Education Subsystem.
Chaired by the Minister of State for Social Affairs, Maria do Rosário Bragança, the legal instrument establishes measures to ensure the inclusion and integration of all people in school, regardless of their differences, in accordance with constitutional principles and the objectives of the National Adult Education and Learning Policy.
In the context of this bill, adult education is understood as a set of educational programs, including literacy, aimed at individuals who have passed the minimum legal age to help them, as a group or individually, develop knowledge, skills, abilities and competencies of an intellectual, affective, physical, artistic, professional and social nature.
According to the Minister of Education, Luísa Grilo, the legal instrument presented aims to regulate Basic Law 17/16, updated by Law 32/20, which provides a second learning opportunity for young people and adolescents who have not completed compulsory education.
"The proposal includes innovative aspects related to professionalization, allowing students to obtain vocational training for the labor market," said the Minister.
The meeting also considered the draft presidential decree approving the Regulations on Medical Internship, a piece of legislation that aims to achieve the government's new vision for a significant and qualitative increase in the number of specialists in the country, facilitating their entry and enabling them to improve health care.
With the approval of this law, doctors will be guaranteed access to the internship without having to provide peripheral services, and the training of specialists will be implemented in all provinces of the country where there is a hospital with training capacity and suitability, taking into account the need to improve health care.ANM/MCN/DAN/AMP
