Our organization focuses on four core pillars of educational support.
Through these four pillars, Education Africa strives to offer robust and comprehensive solutions to communities in need.
Education Access. Equalizing Opportunities.
Education Africa believes that education is the great social equalizer and access to free, high quality schools can level the playing field for disadvantaged and marginalized children and youth in Sub-Saharan Africa. Giving children and youth the chance to go to quality school opens more and better opportunities for them in the future and provides the chance for them to escape the cycle of poverty, improve their personal lives and empower their communities. Educated girls, for example, tend to marry later, have healthier children, are less prone to gender-based violence, earn higher incomes and improve standards of their life.
Schools can also serve as critical protection for children and youth, shielding them from dangerous alternatives such as child labor, child marriage, and other negative options in life facing children and youth of today. Inclusive and quality education can give children and youth critical skills and competencies for the workplace, fueling economic growth and development for all.
Access to inclusive and quality education is essential to sustainable development, equality, stability, peace and the betterment of individuals and the society at large.
