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
Mercy community school is located in the Zambian capital Lusaka of southern africa the school is facing challenges of classrooms and abolution blocks. We are using a small church building as classes which is not enough to accommodate all the children. Some times they learn at the open sir sometimes they get socked with rains because lack of classrooms we are offering free education and counseling to street kids who have been spending there time in drugs and alcohol abuse. We are seeking for help from organisations and individuals who can help as to build the classrooms and abolution blocks. Most of our children have lost there parents to HIV/AIDS. The school will appreciate any assistance you can provide to the school
