Read the text and circle the correct meanings of the highlighted words.

Since UNICEF set up an office in 1975 in Viet Nam, it has run projects in various fields to provide the highest possible
support for children in our country. The organisation particularly aims to create opportunities for all children in Viet Nam to
attend school, learn and succeed. The following programmes help achieve the UNICEF's education aims for Viet Nam.

Education for Disadvantaged Young People
UNICEF helps disadvantaged teenagers continue their education by offering them job training and career advice. They are
also taught essential skills for the job market.

Providing Education Opportunities for Children with Disabilities
This programme gives children with disabilities a chance to get access to and benefit from a quality education. It also helps
promote equal participation in society and a culture in which people respect each other.

Improving Learning Achievements
This is another practical programme supported by UNICEF. The aim is to better prepare children for the challenges in the
future. UNICEF helps Viet Nam in joining regional educational programmes to improve children's learning achievements.
When they leave school, they should have the necessary skills and knowledge to work in a fast-changing world.
