Going digital - Meaningful education that makes an impact
Imagine you’re at school but many of the teachers speak a different language to you, and all of the books are in a language you can’t read or speak.
This is the situation that Rohingya refugee children face every single day. But with your support during The Big Give, we can help change this, providing meaningful education for thousands of refugee children in Bangladesh. Where language creates a barrier to education, we’re using exciting visual and verbal video lessons to open up a world of experience and learning for children confined to refugee camps. |
"We don't like books much as they are difficult and time consuming to understand, but we can easily learn things through the videos and remember the visuals.

Meet Jahan Tara
11-year-old Jahan Tara is a student at one of our learning centres in Kutupalong.
Jahan Tara and her family fled to Bangladesh in 2017 after the Myanmar military attacked their village and burnt down their home. She loves attending the learning centre and says she is never late to class! She explains how the curriculum text books provided in the camp are hard to understand because they are written in a language she doesn't know how to read, but through the digital programme Jahan Tara and her classmates are finally able to understand their lessons. "We don't like books much as they are difficult and time consuming to understand, but we can easily learn things through the videos and remember the visuals. We like the videos more than books!" |
Your support during the Big Give will make an impact and help provide meaningful education through innovative digital lessons for thousands of refugee children like Jahan Tara
