Ensena por Bolivia - ExB Entidad sin fines de lucro

Ensena por Bolivia's vision is that all Bolivians, regardless of their origin, can imagine and creatively build a society where they can develop themselves. The organization works with partner schools and communities to provide training and support to teachers and to implement innovative teaching and learning strategies that promote student engagement and success. Ensena por Bolivia's approach is based on the idea that leadership and educational equity are closely connected and that by developing strong, committed leaders in the educational system, it is possible to create lasting change and improve the lives of children and communities in Bolivia. The organization's work is aligned with Bolivia's national education goals, and our mission, vision and approach are based on the reality we observe every day in the communities and classrooms where we work. The short- and long-term impact we seek is focused on: 1. Improving access to quality education. We prioritize working in marginalized communities and with schools that lack resources or face other challenges that limit access to quality education. To achieve this, Ensena por Bolivia recruits and trains participants who are committed to promoting educational equity and social justice and who have the skills and knowledge to implement innovative teaching and learning strategies that promote student engagement and success. 2. Addressing the quality of education. Ensena por Bolivia focuses on improving the quality of education in Bolivia by promoting innovative teaching and learning strategies, encouraging the use of technology in the classroom, and providing professional development and ongoing support to teachers. The organization works with partner schools and communities to identify improvement opportunities and develop strategies to address them. Ensena por Bolivia would eventually advocate for policies and practices promoting quality education and supporting teachers and students. 3. Addressing the education gap between urban and rural areas. Ensena por Bolivia is working to address the education gap between urban and rural areas by establishing partnerships with schools and communities in remote or marginalized regions. ExB recruits and trains teachers willing to work in these areas and deeply understand their communities cultural and social context. We also work with local authorities and stakeholders to identify and address barriers to education in rural areas, such as limited resources, inadequate infrastructure, and cultural biases. 4. Support the movement led by communities and Alumni. We believe that one of the most effective ways to generate social change is through the participation of social actors within the same communities that face inequality in different levels and areas. The objective is to build synergies with the entire educational community: Parents' school boards, educational councils, district education offices, student organizations and indigenous authorities. The aim is to contribute to the common goal of pursuing better education. Each actor in this ecosystem plays a crucial part in developing a more equitable vision of education that allows children and youth in our country to fulfill their potential. This is the base of our approach.

Taghyeer Organization - We Love Reading

Taghyeer Organization/ We Love Reading Program is an innovative model that provides a practical, cost efficient, sustainable, grassroots approach empowering communities from low and mid income communities around the world to create changemakers through reading. WLR supports the activism of local volunteers to increase reading levels among children 2-10 by focusing on the readaloud experience to instill the love of reading for pleasure among children to become lifelong learners.

Each year, WLR volunteers read to tens of thousands of children in public parks, community centers, mosques and other faith-based settings, nurseries, refugee camps, and other locales. We serve diverse populations and communities irrespective of gender, religion, social status, disability, literacy level, educational experience, etc. The training is either implemented in face-to-face settings or via our online platform to allow reaching wider audience of people wanting to volunteer and become reading ambassadors.

Fundacion para el Emprendimiento Entrepreneur

At Fundacion Entrepreneur, we work every day to "be the social actor that leads Learning by Playing in Latin America". "We seek to develop the competencies in our children and young people, that will become the best version of themselves and develop in the 21st century" Eight years ago there were three troublesome problems that were in our heads: What would happen if all people learned to undertake and be an entrepreneur?, What would happen if we were all financially literate, balancing our well-being and money?, What if we had fewer social myths and a mayor sense of citizenship and belonging? Common problems, which are in everyone's life, but which are not all carrying burden. Thus, in 2012, the chilean company Momento Cero (Mo.0), who has spent 15 years making learning and innovating always entertaining, through the creation of various tools to carry out the Learning by Playing methodology, saw the need to generate social impact initiatives, thus giving rise to our Entrepreneur Foundation, an independent, non-profit organization. We felt in love with the challenges linked to this specific problems, because we believe they are the individual mobilizing motors of freedom and necessary to create, finance and implement dreams and projects that are a contribution to the common good. How do we put this into practice? We develop, implement and evaluate school programs that promote the use of educational board games in the classroom, focusing on students between 12 and 18 years old. We address relevant topics for current challenges: entrepreneurial talent, financial literacy, social sense and citizenship. Along with this, we co-developed the book "Playful mindset: to create, educate, undertake and innovate", where we share our know-how. Why Learn by Playing? Because if there are emotions, there is learning. And if that learning has an educational intention to provide tools to our young people, even better! We know that the Learning by Playing methodology generates emotions, fosters self-confidence, develops divergent thinking and reduces stress, which increases learning, thus developing in children and young people the skills that will allow them to become the best version of themselves in this century. We know that our challenge is not easy and we have a long way to go, but we are committed to enhancing the talent of each person, contributing to the formation of integral human beings, according to the challenges of the 21st century.
