An international association for development through education, Action Education has been ensuring, since 1981, access to quality education for the most vulnerable and marginalized populations, particularly children, girls and women, so that all can control their own development and contribute to a more peaceful and sustainable world.
Because access to quality education helps combat poverty and disease, limit climate change and build peace in a sustainable world, we promote lifelong learning. We therefore pay particular attention to early childhood care and education, access to and quality of primary and secondary education, as well as vocational training and social inclusion.
By basing our intervention on the fundamental values of dignity, inclusion and integrity, as well as on the principles of action of transparency, accountability and solidarity, and thanks to the support of our 51,000 donors, we carry out 85 projects in 19 countries in Africa, South Asia, Southeast Asia and Europe – including France – for more than 2.9 million children, young people and adults.
