NederlandsAbout us
Knowledge for Children Foundation is a Cameroon-Netherlands based NGO, which believes that for children in developing countries; a promising future starts with Knowledge. That is why Knowledge for Children invests in education for these children. We do this through the most informative method possible: school textbooks! As nothing holds more educational potential that a school textbook, we focus on the implementation of schoolbook projects. Through our projects over the last years we have already provided 75 rural primary schools in Cameroon with school textbooks. We aim to do this in a balanced manner, always providing our activities with a sustainable base by encouraging ownership by the local communities themselves. Such an approach is highly valued by our partners and donors in both the Netherlands and Cameroon. Knowledge for Children further emphasizes this approach by asking (and assisting) schools to set-up and maintain their own book foundation for replenishment and expansion of each school’s supply of books. Our activities also include organising seminars and workshops for teachers and parent councils regarding education and the correct use of the books that we have provided. We are currently investigating how to best incorporate HIV/Aids and Malaria education into our existing activities. The factsheets below provide a brief overview of Knowledge for Children:
