About the Cause
Dubai Cares’ programs are designed to reduce, if not remove, the greatest obstacles that prevent children and young people in developing countries from attaining quality education. With each intervention, Dubai Cares evaluates the need for assistance across two key areas:
Access to Education which allows Dubai Cares to improve children’s health and learning environment, increase education enrollment and attainment, increase access to education, reduce absenteeism, increase gender parity and increase promotion rates.
Quality of Education which enables early learning, enhances educational attainment and school progression, improves literacy and numeracy skills among children, enables teachers to access teacher training resulting in better learning outcomes, reduce dropout rates and increase primary school attainment.
Dubai Cares is a long-term advocate of safeguarding children and young people’s right to education and is currently playing a global advocacy role in spreading the knowledge about the importance of providing education to the unprivileged children.
We also champion education through research - There is an overwhelming lack of evidence as to what works to promote children’s learning in crisis-affected contexts. Research plays a pivotal role in tackling this issue.
My Story
For our NGO "Al*Andalus Cultural Centre" Green and White Mosque of Martínez Foundation' at the neigborhood of Martínez (San Isidro District, Metropolitan Region of the Capital City, Buenos Aires, República Argentina) with a strong muslim community without a Cultural Centre and a Mosque on 70 kms. to the most closest 'Islamic Centre of the Two Mosques "Emir Fahd"' (Bullrich Ave., Palermo, Buenos Aires City) with daily political riots closing the freeways, the main locals avenues and disturbing the possibility to assist to the Holy Friday Morning call for the humble prayers. Our community gets a middle-class life on a really poor society from a market*economy crashed by the corrupt and unussesful political bureaucracy without care the color of the Presidential Administration in charge. They're waisting a beautiful country with peaceful and smart people and destroying all the natural resources that God puts there for the natural continuity on our children. We need help a lot of them for the project to design, to the construction, to the opening and to the enjoy with the holy & beautiful "Green and White Mosque of Martínez" ('GWMM') at the top of the watercliffs facing the huge River Plate on the direction of Mecca and the sun-rising. Please confort our pain and helps us to make our dream comes true. Leonardo Laje Chairman, Al*Andalus Foundation Martínez - San Isidro - Buenos Aires Argentina [email protected] WApp#:+54911.2450.1661
