Our Impact
Egypt is facing huge environmental and social challenges. Yet the education system fails to equip youth with the ability to take initiative and live a self-determined life.
We urgently need an education revolution, and we need it fast! We want SESC also to serve as a model for how future-oriented education can look like.
SESC has served around 3000 kids since it was established in 2010, and has built strong networks with different schools and other non-formal education centers around Egypt.
We know we can have a great impact in making Egypt a better place: with YOUR support! Thank you!

Our Challenges
Since SESC is a non-formal learning center, we are not bound by accreditation from any formal state institution. Yet, we are facing other challenges.
First and foremost, we need to get our kids to go beyond the mere realization of “oh, this is going wrong” or “yes, this is really a huge challenge” mentality, into taking responsibility and initiative in addressing those.
But we are positive that we can do this, because our education model goes beyond mere “information dumping” towards a holistic approach, in which the child and human is the core of every action we take.
This is reflected in the Education for Sustainable Development pillars of learning to be, to know, to do, live together, and transform oneself and society - and we know from our experience that the four are a prerequisite for the ability to sustainably transform in the inner and outer world
