Overview

Strengthening the systems around every student

Individual support only goes so far if the school and system around a student aren't strong enough to sustain progress. Our Advocacy & Capacity Building programme works with public schools, parent committees and local government to assess facilities, run teacher professional development, and facilitate dialogue on the education challenges facing whole communities.

Rather than one-off donations, we focus on institutional partnerships — the kind of collaboration that leaves a school better equipped long after our team has moved on to the next community.
