WHAT WE DO?
Education not only opens the doors to knowledge and learning, but also paves the way towards the eradication of poverty, and towards achieving gender equality, decent work, and sustainable economic growth. As a society, to achieve a fairer, more developed, and efficient world, we must ensure inclusive and equitable education for all.
Xcalibur Foundation was born to contribute to this goal by developing programmes that aim to target school absenteeism, maximise school attendance, and encourage continuous and formal education, while also caring for participants’ psychosocial, mental and emotional needs. Access to education is a fundamental right, and it is through our close work with local partners that we ensure no one is left behind. Our programmes align with the 2030 agenda and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
As a non-profit organization rooted in education, our purpose and main goal targets SDG 4: promoting inclusive and quality education for all. Additionally, we strive towards:
