Quality education is the foundation for development. VVOB contributes to an equitable world in which governments are capacitated to respect, protect and fulfil the right to quality education for every learner, without any form of discrimination.
Quality education provides all learners with capacities they require to become economically productive, develop sustainable livelihoods, contribute to peaceful and democratic societies and enhance individual wellbeing. The required learning outcomes vary according to context. In general, completion of basic education must mean a minimum level of literacy and numeracy, basic scientific knowledge and life skills is achieved. Capacity development to improve the quality of teachers and other education stakeholders is crucial throughout this process.
VVOB works towards Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG 4) – “quality education for all” – and ensures the improvement of education:
