Education

World Vision Ethiopia’s contribution to education reached and benefited over 4.9 million children. WVE undertook extensive investment primarily focusing on constructing elementary and secondary schools, providing school materials to vulnerable children and training school teachers. Since 2015, the Education and Life Skills technical programme made a strategic shift from infrastructure development to innovative education models such as Early Childhood Development, Unlock Literacy, and Basic Education School Improvement Programme which focus on children’s software skill development. 

The effort was mainly aimed at contributing to the nation’s effort in rendering access to education by improving the quality of education and life skills for children aged between 3 to 14 years old. In this regard, the programme has planned to reach an estimated 6.2 million children and 2.5 million men and women over its current strategic period. The program has a dictum that fits this spirit – “Focus where LEARNING begins! ".

In the year 2023, our programme has reached a total of 308,450 children and 150, 454 are girls in its 34 Area programmes, in nine regions of the country.
