Connect It.
We connect our ideas and findings and create deeper connections with past and future schools.
There is a big gap between urban and rural education. Resources among them are very different causing inequality in many countries. Some students have very creative minds, yet they don't have the opportunity to get higher education. Some students don't even attend high school.
Our organization brings attention to these issues.
