More information
A-CET funds educational support programmes within Ethiopia through the local NGO - EYES which is managed by our trained and experienced ex-students. We are strictly apolitical and we do not see it as our remit to "lobby". We work within the policies and with the cooperation of the local elected government. We fund long-term scholarships for locally selected vulnerable youngsters who, without our support, would be unable to attend full-time education and we build/upgrade rural community elementary schools using local labour and materials. We believe these small scale targeted supervised projects are the most effective way of supporting development though education.
