What we aim to solve
Until now, access equal and affordable education for youth around the globe did not exist, and for those who were able to attend school, this did not mean they would find meaningful employment after they graduated. Education is only one piece of fixing the underlying issue of poverty, but without employment opportunities, the education cannot be applied and generational poverty prevails. Problems we are working to solve: Irrelevant curriculum fails to prepare students for the demands of the modern world. Access to equal and affordable education does not exist for everyone. One-size-fits-all educational model. Most students cannot monetize their education by the time they graduate high school. Employment opportunities are scarce in many areas.
