This project aims to improve educational attainment and participation of girls and boys, aged 2-15 in eight countries with a child friendly approach to learning with play. Project activities include: (1) training of teachers, coaches, district level education officials and parent-teacher associations in the use of child friendly learning approaches; (2) mobilizing child-led and youth-led clubs and sport leagues to undertake community development initiatives to address barriers to education; and (3) providing technical assistance and mentorship to civil society partners and governments on policies and practices that promote child friendly learning, and (4) public engagement activities organized in Canada. Through this initiative, teachers and community coaches are providing children with better quality education.
