Children tell us why education is important

We’re committed to making it possible for children to access education, so they can find a career, learn their rights and change their future. The kids in the non-profit, India-based Teach For India video understand that, too.

“We can study and become some person who can do something in our life,” one boy in the video tells his peer.

At Children Believe, we empower children to overcome barriers — such as harmful traditional practices, and poverty — preventing them from accessing education. We also help advance child rights and protection, promote equality for girls and partner with women for change, so lasting change is possible.

Watch the video below as children from India share why they think education is important.
