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

Addressing GBV is crucial not only for the direct victims but for the advancement of gender equality and human rights globally. This necessitates comprehensive efforts including, education, and cultural change to challenge and change the conditions that allow GBV to continue.Ubhaqa Networks is a non-profit organization officially launched on the 8th of December 2011 and registered in 2012. Ubhaqa Networks is focusing on promoting the culture of learning and teaching in schools and health sector with an aim of uplifting the standard of education and health in Greater Cato Manor and surrounding of KZN. Ubhaqa Networks was funded by AIDS Foundation on a Small grant programme starting from 1 April 2021-31 March 2022. The organization was linked with TB/HIV care to reduce the spread of TB in Greater Cato Manor as it was a hotspot area. Ubhaqa Networks was fortunate to be selected for the Medium Size grant by AIDS Foundation to identify Human Right Violation cases, to document Human Right Violation cases and refer them to relevant department. Ubhaqa networks operates in these following wards 24,29,69,74,75,101. We need to reduce GBV and Human rights violations in all these wards by having monthly programmes, awarenesses, events support groups and marches to advocate for the End of GBV.
