Nothing About Us, Without Us. This week at #UNGA, young people from @EducateOrg & around the world shared what they need from education — during an interactive panel moderated by @TransformEdu_ & State of Secondary Education (SOSE) Collaborative. It was a thoughtful discussion.
Last year we reached 230,000+ young people across East Africa through solutions designed to build practical skills, unlock economic opportunity & drive lasting change.

Is secondary education building the skills youth need for success later in life? At #CIES2026, @EducateOrg will join partners to explore what it takes to design education systems that respond to changing economies and prepare youth for real-world opportunities.
Let’s connect!
In Tanzania, educators are advancing the revised Business Studies syllabus to help students build practical skills for employment and entrepreneurship — as steps toward becoming job creators through hands-on learning and real-world experience.
Ward Education Officers play a critical role in strengthening teaching and learning. Through regular school visits, they monitor implementation of national education policies and provide guidance to Head Teachers and subject teachers.
For over a decade @EducateOrg has worked alongside governments, teachers & young people to create pathways that bridge the gap between education & economic opportunity—helping young people build skills as they strengthen their livelihoods.
