Ensuring children have what they need to prosper
Aga Khan Academies
Education for Marginalized Children in Kenya (EMACK) aims to improve access and retention rates for primary school students in historically underserved groups, especially in Nairobi, Coast and North Eastern provinces. EMACK’s Whole School approach engages parents and community stakeholders in children’s learning processes, develops a community of reading, and supports identification of school challenges and solutions by School Management Committees.

20 November 2019 - From setting up yurt kindergartens in the high mountain pastures of Kyrgyzstan to providing digital literacy apps for young school children in the remote coastal regions of Kenya, to raising the bar on teaching and nursing credentials across almost all of the countries in which it works, in all of its endeavours the AKDN is committed to creating an environment in which young children can have a healthy, happy and meaningful start in life that cultivates opportunities for a lifetime. Here is selection of photos to celebrate this work on Universal Children’s Day 2019!
