 * Issue: Education for All **
 * Period: Humanities Core 2

Organization: Education TEAM ** Our organization's purpose is to enhance educational opportunities for middle and high school children in rural China. About 70 per cent of the poor live in rural areas. In the least developed countries about 70 percent of people make a living from the primary industries, mainly agriculture. Education is essential for reducing poverty, improving agriculture and the living conditions of rural people and building a food-secure world. Education is a basic right in itself. In spite of this, children's access to education in rural areas is still much lower than in urban areas, adult illiteracy is much higher and the quality of education is poorer. We'll focus mainly on children because they are the next generation and they are the one's that China is dependent on for a better future. We're focusing on middle school and high school students because the schooling fee is more expensive than the elementary fee. We'll set up activities to the public and raise money to fund the children in rural areas.
