Come learn what CARE does to reach the last 10%
CARE (Cooperative for Assistance and Relief Everywhere) is one of the largest international humanitarian agencies. With the goal of fighting global poverty CARE has a special focus on education in developing countries. Through their education programs, CARE has reached more than 2.3 million students in 48 countries. They work alongside communities, governments and partner organizations at many levels to address all aspects of basic education. Drawing strength from their global reach, they have an extensive education portfolio and partnerships, develop innovative learning solutions and provide educators with the knowledge and skills necessary to fulfill everyone's need to learn. CARE trains teachers and other school personnel to improve the quality of education while linking education programs to interventions in health, nutrition and livelihoods to better address the reasons children don't attend school.
Please join us for an interesting discussion with the participants as we explore education in the developing world.
