The Challenge
Despite progress in school enrolment, millions of African children and young people still lack access to quality education. Learning outcomes remain low in many countries. Youth unemployment is rising sharply. And a rapidly digitalising global economy is leaving many young Africans behind before they have had a real chance to begin.
Our Response
We work to expand access to quality education, strengthen learning systems, and prepare young people for success in a fast-changing world. Our programs go beyond classrooms, we invest in digital skills, vocational training, entrepreneurship education, and leadership development so young people are ready for the opportunities of today and tomorrow.
