To uplift government schools, the Department of Education has been undertaking various initiatives that have infrastructure, including classrooms, laboratories, sanitation facilities, handwash stations and proper waste management systems, as part of their key focus areas.
Embassy drives positive change by providing infrastructure-based, sustainable solutions for government schools to create environments that are conducive to learning. To ensure that the school’s remain structurally safe we undertake year-round repairs and renovations. We promote grass-roots solutions to global problems in the communities we are a part of.
