The Right To Real Education

To ensure real, quality education for children without parental care through technology and training.

Why we started the project

According to UNESCO, in 2023, there were 9.5 million children and young people were out of school in Latin America and the Caribbean. NICEF, UNESCO and World Bank studies consistently show that children without parental care face much higher risks of dropping out, never enrolling, or falling behind in school. Children without parents often face extreme poverty, because they may need to: work to survive, beg, or care for younger sibling, which pushes them out of school. Poverty is the strongest predictor of educational exclusion.

Children without caregivers often have no adult defending their educational rights, so they fall through the cracks of the system.

“The Right to Real Education” directly addresses educational exclusion among children without parental care by giving them access to high-quality digital learning and the tools needed to get out of scacity. Through a partnership with Wonderly, we have secured 20,000 licenses that provide training in Animation, Introduction to Python, Web Design, Python Programming, Principles of Computing, and Fundamentals of AI. To ensure every child feels supported and guided, a dedicated group of volunteer mentors will accompany them throughout their learning journey, offering encouragement, feedback, and personalized guidance.
