PROGRAMME 01 • EDUCATION & CHILDREN

Every child deserves a real chance to learn.

Supporting access to education, better learning environments and opportunity for children in vulnerable communities.

EDUCATION AS OPPORTUNITY

Learning should not depend on where a child is born.

Education is described in IPF's original programme as a vital human right. The organisation seeks support from stakeholders to work with villages that lack adequate classrooms.

The source material describes children learning in huts or under trees, facing difficult weather conditions, or travelling long distances to reach the nearest school.

IPF also identifies girls' sponsorship as a pathway to life skills, education and confidence, with benefits that can extend to families and communities.
