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 am Sarah, born in 1998 When the war started, I was 13 years old, and then, after years of suffering and a long journey of escape, I came with my family to Turkey. I completed my education and entered psychology because I love it very much... I think I went through a lot of difficult circumstances: war, immigration, a controlling patriarchal society, and racism...but I always see myself as lucky. I believe that I have a beautiful destiny You were the domino to move this fate and helped me finish my studies so I could work and be financially independent. I live in Turkey and this site does not support this geographical region, but I will write my email here if someone would like to contact me for help.
