About my charity Link Community Development (LCD) works to improve education for children, giving them a chance to escape the poverty into which they have been born. LCD’s vision is of a future where children are given a chance to flourish and fulfil their potential. We believe that education is a basic human right and fundamental to breaking the cycle of poverty. Our mission is to improve the potential of disadvantaged people in Africa to gain meaningful employment by sharing and developing appropriate skills through education and training. In Africa, we work with whole districts in 5 countries: Ethiopia, Ghana, Malawi, South Africa and Uganda, helping them improve educational outcomes in all schools in the district. In Ireland, LCD links Irish schools with schools in Africa, allowing pupils, teachers and communities to exchange information and ideas and facilitating the Irish school to support the African school in its development. LCD in Ireland also sends Irish teachers to work in African schools and communities to share skills and support school improvement. “There is perhaps nothing more important than the education of our young people. It is through access to quality education that young people can develop to their full potential and extend their opportunities in life.” The Most Reverend Desmond Tutu, Patron of LCD Click here for more information |
