Challenges associated with poverty, limited resources, and cultural norms affect both educational and life outcomes for learners in Zambia and other African countries. Many families cannot afford school fees, uniforms, or other educational expenses or requirements. Girls often face greater barriers to education than boys, as cultural norms prioritize boys' education while girls have responsibilities at home and are often expected to marry at a young age. Distance from schools and lack of infrastructure also limit access to education for many. In response to these challenges, ReachAll works to improve the learning, development, and life outcomes of disadvantaged, vulnerable, and marginalized communities in Zambia. From a foundation of competence-based learning and social-emotional learning, they developed a transformative, inclusive educational framework that builds and improves essential abilities and competencies in learners.
