DoPeace-ISDE Bangladesh Chittagong

DoPeace is implementing an innovative model that combines technology with traditional teaching. We strive to give access to the impoverished children in the slums to pre-school education, discouraging them from becoming a street child with no education. Access is the priority. To facilitate access, we open basic classrooms within the slum community for the parents to bring children within minutes of walking distance. We keep the cost low, and emphasize on the very basics: students, books, teachers, and a basic classroom. We inculcate the habit of going to school and the value of education. We also take the responsibility to take our pre-school graduates and admit them to the first grade in government schools which are free. We believe we have four innovations somewhat different from other providers of education to the marginalized slum children.
