OBJECTIVES

Each Task Force has a simple aim: to get as many children as possible to take part in education and thus give these children the chance of a better future and therefore the country the chance to develop. Anyone which assists us with our work will be helping to bring about a change in the mentality which accepts that so many children miss out on their right to an education, and to bring about real changes for the children and the community as a whole.

A child who grows up without education will very frequently work in the informal sector by selling sweets, cleaning shoes etc and will have little chance to improve himself in the future and will offer nothing to benefit the development of his community. In addition to this it’s often the case that these children then fall into a life on the streets with all the problems of drugs and prostitution that this habitually entails. The project is targeted at these children and we aim to convert them into students in the hope that we can break the cycle and in turn give the future generation a better start.
