The crucial role that education plays in combating poverty is emphasized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).
The United Nations asserts that education is essential to ending the cycle of enduring poverty and halting its generational transfer.
Education is important when it comes to Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta’s Big Four Agenda.
Kenya’s scientific ideas, initiatives, and discoveries are protected by strong systems that the President has continuously asked relevant ministries to set up.
To adapt to a rapidly evolving world marked by significant advancements in science and technology, the Competence-Based Curriculum (CBC) was introduced, aiming to help students stay abreast of these changes.
The funding of public universities that offer postsecondary education options is supported by the government. TVET programs are included to provide students with relevant skills.
Financial limitations prevent a number of Kenyan candidates from moving on to secondary and university education despite their best efforts.
A number of foundations fill this void by providing scholarships to worthy students, each with its own requirements for full or partial support.
The top ten foundations supporting this cause are as follows: 1. The Foundation for Kengen granting yearly academic support to graduates from underprivileged, rural, or marginalized populations who demonstrate academic excellence.
