Build Classrooms and Toilets for 600 Kids in Congo

1. Background and Rationale

In South Kivu Province, access to dignified education remains a major challenge for many children. At Nyandja Primary School, more than 600 pupils are forced to study in extremely poor conditions. Due to the lack of classrooms, children learn outdoors, exposed to harsh sun, rain, and insecurity. The absence of latrines, desks, and teaching materials seriously affects their health, motivation, and academic performance.

These conditions lead to frequent illness, school dropouts, and the loss of future opportunities for an already vulnerable generation living in poverty.

2. Project Objective

The main objective of this project is to provide 600 children with a safe, healthy, and appropriate learning environment, thereby strengthening access to quality and sustainable education.
