Overview

Investment in education results in improvements in knowledge and competencies, and in economic and cultural development, both for the individual and for society.

We believe that education is a crucial strategy in reducing poverty, developing self esteem, and enhancing the capacity of young people to reach their full potential. Through education, people can build a world that is just, creative and sustainable.

The objective of the Education program is:

• To leverage the best outcomes in educational settings for young people aged 0-25.
