Elimu Kwa Wote, Education for All (360G-CR-1252445)

This project will work to improve the training offered to secondary school students studying to qualify as teachers. These new teachers will be further supported by in-service training across a range of primary schools in the Plateau region of the Democratic Republic of Congo, a remote and agricultural region. Recognising that poverty is a barrier to enrolment in school, partner organisations will work with communities to establish loans and savings associations. They will also work with 12 schools to set up enterprises which will aim to reduce reliance on school fee income. Working through community theatre, partners will address the issues around girl enrolment and retention in schools with wider communities and youth groups.
