Imagine if every educator in an at-risk region was supported by a team of dedicated online volunteers. Imagine if everyone who wanted to improve global education could make a real and lasting difference without ever needing to leave home.
Created by the Canadian International Learning Foundation, the Educator Volunteer Network is an online community where teachers in regions of poverty, illness or war can request and receive one-on-one mentorship and assistance from skilled international volunteers. Whether an educator wants help improving their math classes, writing a partnership proposal or planning for the school’s future, a skilled volunteer is ready to help using just their expertise, the Internet and a few hours a week.
The knowledge that teachers gain helps increase student learning this year and for years to come. By increasing students’ general knowledge, critical thinking skills, self-confidence and employment opportunities, education plays a vital role in improving family health, supporting equality, promoting human rights, increasing safety and transforming communities.
Help a teacher. Educate a child. Transform a community.
