The Aga Khan Foundation’s education program works within the broader education activities of AKDN. On the ladder of learning, the Foundation provides support at various levels and pays special attention to the crucial first rung: getting young children into school.
The Foundation plays a key role in promoting AKDN’s education agenda by increasing access to schools for young children – particularly girls and other marginalised children – who live in poor and geographically remote locations.
