Education: the key to sustainable development

Since 2008, Switzerland has supported the Global Partnership for Education, the largest global fund dedicated to strengthening education in low-income countries. But what exactly is Swiss international cooperation doing on the ground? Our expert field staff in Afghanistan and Benin, present the projects for children's education that they lead and point out that access to education remains a major challenge for millions of children.

The construction and equipment of school infrastructures and the distribution of school kits are among the actions supported by the GPE in Benin.
