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
My name is mohammed abed , I am 22 and a 5th year medical student currently studying abroad at Zagazig University, Egypt, but from Gaza, Palestine. My family is currently trapped in Gaza and would normally make payment for my tuition, however due to the current conflict, I have lost contact with them and unable to secure the payment for my tuition fees to complete my studies. There is no financial assistance being provided by the government or embassy. During this trying time, I am reaching out to the wider public for financial support. Your contribution will assist me in covering my tuition fees to complete my medical degree and help alleviate one of the stresses caused by the war in Gaza. Thank you for your support
