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
I was born in a humble background where i learnt how to respect and feel for people as though it was me going through their situation, as i grew up i realized that people never had enough for their families and yet they had the potential to learn how to manufacture bags, shoes, clothes and other creatives, This forced me to spend 60% of my monthly salary to teach these skills to vulnerable household and also link them to markets so that they (the families) can have a purchasing power to feed their families and scale up these businesses. When i realized that this was working i put it at a level where i developed an academy for creatives and Craft to create jobs for the people in my community
