Focus Area 3
Education And Training Projects
In many parts of the Asia Pacific region, there are students from underprivileged families yearning to pursue their studies to improve their lives and the lives of others around them. This includes the opportunity to pursue Islamic education in many Muslim minority countries.
In line with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 4, Quality Education, RDC aims to provide “Quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all”.
We aspire to improve the opportunities for equal access to affordable and quality education for all women and men and build the capacity for education in the communities. This means providing lifelong learning opportunities for children, youth, and adults which includes preschool, elementary/primary school, secondary school, technical, vocational, and tertiary education.
