The CO-ID charity believes in a fair go for both girls and boys.
Fact: CO-ID schools have helped to increase literacy and numeracy skills
Pupils have the edge plus the basic education to get ahead in life in Bangladesh. |
CO-ID brings education to the third world. Over the past years, Fred has developed friendly and co-operative relationships with the Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist and Christian sectors of the community, so CO-ID schools are welcomed by the Bangladeshi Government as a positive "foreign" initiative.
There's also a longer-term 'agenda' for the schools in the third world. Fred is battling the perception that education is wasted on girls and provides equal opportunities to both sexes in the classroom.
Importantly, his studies show that where CO-ID schools have been built, not only have literacy and numeracy levels risen, but population growth has begun to slow.
After operating in Bangladesh for over 20 years, he is now able to show that graduates of CO-ID schools, simply through access to education, mature to have markedly smaller families, a finding supported by wider research.
Fred often says that
the role of the local CO-ID Australian committee is quite simply to raise money. But it has a second, less obvious role. - that is to not spend money. One of the greatest attractions to donors is being so tight with money!
Every dollar counts.
