Leveraging Africa's Education Initiative
Leveraging Africa's Education Initiative is a community of young people working towards enhancing sustainable development through quality education.
About
Who We Are
We are a community of youths originally from Kenya, our mission however is to reach all corners of Africa.
We elucidate that quality education is the long term solution to most of the problems that the African continent is facing. According to UNDP about 57 million primary aged children remain out of school, more than half of them are in sub-Saharan Africa.
The problems contributing to this huge number of children out of school are; poverty, wars and conflict, outdated cultural practices, lack of clean water, school uniform, stationeries and inadequate teaching and non-teaching staff among other challenges.
We therefore want to help by leading a campaign to encourage the government and other education stakeholders as well as inspire individuals to take up the responsibility and help in any way anyone can to ensure that children in their communities children attend and stay in school.
We seek to provide material support to students, this includes safe drinking water in schools, school uniforms, writing materials and any other basic requirements. We will also organize part tutoring and volunteering positions for educators and support staff in areas that do not have access to them.
We also hope to inspire general population to embrace this call for it will not only keep the students in school but also make them comfortable to study and realize their full potentials.
Keeping the children in school will reduce the risks of early marriages, crime rates, poverty level and hunger. It will also boost health and general well-being, gender equality and mitigate effects of climate change.
Vision
Ensure an equitable education for all student to learn, identify and nature their talents and abilities. An equal access to education. We are striving for a level playground where students are comfortable and can access all the resources to be the best version of themselves and reach their full potential.
Mission
Enhance quality education by providing basic school requirements to students.
We feel that the disparity in access to education materials play a huge role in the huge number of children out of school. Apart from providing basic school requirements we will also get involved in youth empowerment, motivation, school talent search, STEM education and promote action on climate change.
