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
Children In Need Organization is operating in deprived slum communities in Sierra Leone,with a flagship program focusing on education to support vulnerable children and uphold their fundamental rights. Children living in deprived slum communities deserve better, they're less considered and 35% do missed the whole school calender as a result of basic needs. No school learning materials, no food or lunch, due to flooding. Children In Need Organization (CINORG) Introduced teaching programs in June to September and hired teachers within the informal settlements and provide learning materials and food for the less privileged in 10 centers. Support vulnerable children to get good quality education living in informal settlements doesn't mean they should not be considered or be educated.
