Partners in Education
Education is not free for Ugandan students. School fees are far beyond the means of most families, most of whom live on less than $1 a day.
The Batwa Development Program is a comprehensive program to help Batwa families through educational initiatives such as:
• Four independent schools employing certified teachers and qualified staff
• Educational support for approximately 1,400 students in eleven settlements at every level from nursery to university
• Tuition, supplies, lunches, uniforms, mentoring
• Transportation, mattresses, and holiday packages for Batwa boarding students
