Here are some pictures of the few schools in Africa. These children are extremely fortunate to be able to attend school, despite the fact that the "school" is a hut with dirt floors. The bottom picture displays an organization that is trying to get more schools in Africa.

This is a link to a presentation by Amy Greaves about providing education in third world countries. It displays a lot of useful facts and information.
Throughout this project I really learned a lot about education in third world countries. I discovered that there are many people and organizations that are working to help build schools and broaden the academic spectrum. Despite these efforts, however, there is much to be done. Other developed countries have to get involved, and the countries that are suffering have to be on board with the changes that need to be made. All of these things, and I think we can turn around education in third world countries.
