EDUCATION

 

Education is a fundamental human right and a powerful tool for reducing inequality and expanding opportunity. Equitable access to quality educational opportunities ensures that education is not just a privilege to those that have the financial means to access it.

SWAHA Foundation is committed to dismantling the barriers that under-resourced youth face in accessing an education, and for SWAHA, education encompasses both traditional classroom learning as well as nature and climate education. To promote equitable access to educational opportunities, SWAHA Foundation sponsors students via scholarships and directly supports organizations whose missions are grounded in promoting widespread access to education.
