At a glance

The Qari w Fahem programme supports adults who could not attend school or have lost the basics: reading and writing in Arabic, reading and writing in French, basic arithmetic and an introduction to digital tools.

Each module costs 800 DZD and lasts 4 – 8 weeks, in a supportive setting.

Who is it for?

  • Adults who want to read and write without relying on someone else.
  • People who need to use a smartphone, WhatsApp or online administrative services.
  • Families who want to help a parent or relative regain independence.

Programme, price and duration

Prices in Algerian dinars (DZD), per course:

  • Arabic reading & writing — 800 DZD · 8 weeks
  • French reading & writing — 800 DZD · 8 weeks
  • Basic arithmetic — 800 DZD · 6 weeks
  • Digital basics — 800 DZD · 4 weeks

What you will be able to do

  • Know letters, vowels and syllables, then read simple texts in Arabic or French.
  • Add, subtract and multiply for everyday situations.
  • Get to grips with a smartphone, send a message or email and browse the internet.

Careers and prospects

A course does not guarantee a job, but it opens doors. These are the realistic paths:

  • The goal is everyday independence rather than a specific job.
  • Practical life: read a document, count change, use an online service.
  • Next step: a base that lets you consider vocational training afterwards, for example in the Wadafni pack.
