World conflict
In the right places
We channel most of our support to the lowest income and crisis-affected countries.
Conflict
At the right time
We help keep education systems running through conflict, disasters and health emergencies.
Grants financing
At scale
We use our funds as catalytic capital to leverage billions of additional dollars in domestic and international financing for education.
