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
With the start of COVID 19 worldwide and the first confirmed case in the UAE on 29 January of 2020, the disease continues to affect numerous aspects of our lives. Therefore, our Covid Relief club aims to ensure that education is one of the aspects that continues uninterrupted. Our club with approval from Dubai Cares is working to help provide students "who are not equipped with the necessary ICT devices and tools to join their peers in distance learning from the safety of their homes". To accomplish this, we need YOUR help today. A dirham counts. Thank you for your attention! - "Education Uninterrupted" (ongoing campaign in the Dubai Cares) - This is a platform specifically to promote and gather money from the DAA community and donate to this campaign.
