Can education bring about sustainable socio-economic change?
“Whoever is unwilling to help himself can be helped by no one.” Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi, Swiss educator
We are proud to announce Conium Nyathi’s visit to Switzerland.
Besides meeting stakeholders and future partners, he will be speaking publicly at different venues. Sign up now to ensure a seat!
Meet this exceptional advocate for human rights, youth, especially girl empowerment and environmental issues. Hear him speak about the challenges communities, especially the girl child, are facing and how we find pragmatic, solutions through education to bring about sustainable socio-economic change.
Girls in developing countries are given fewer opportunities in education and the workplace. Youth unemployment leads to poverty, migration, and conflict!
Learn how we educate to counteract brain-drain, the effects of climate change and insufficient waste management and take part in our panel discussions.
