Detalhes
Education Development Initiative (EDI)
1. Background and Rationale
Access to quality foundational education remains a significant challenge in many underserved communities. Limited resources, overcrowded classrooms, and insufficient trained teaching staff contribute to poor learning outcomes. Many children in these areas lack not only educational materials but also the individualized support necessary to thrive academically.
The Education Development Initiative (EDI) seeks to bridge this gap by leveraging the passion and expertise of local and international volunteers. By working alongside teachers and community stakeholders, volunteers provide critical support in both academic and extracurricular learning areas, helping children build a strong foundation in core subjects and life skills.
2. Goal and Objectives
Overall Goal:
To improve the quality of foundational education for children in underserved communities and foster an inclusive, creative, and engaging learning environment.
Specific Objectives:
1. Support teachers in lesson planning, classroom management, and instructional delivery.
2. Offer targeted tutoring in English, Math, and Science to students requiring additional support.
3. Introduce and facilitate creative learning through sports, arts, music, and interactive educational games.
4. Deliver basic computer literacy training to students and teachers to bridge the digital divide.
5. Develop innovative, low-cost educational materials and games tailored to local needs.
Atividades & Turnos

Regras
📜 Program Rules – The EDI Code
To ensure a safe, respectful, and effective experience for everyone, all volunteers agree to the following:
1. Respect the Community
Treat students, teachers, and community members with kindness, humility, and cultural sensitivity at all times.
2. Be Present and Reliable
Consistent attendance and punctuality matter. Volunteers are role models — show up, be prepared, and give your best.
3. Collaborate, Don’t Dominate
You’re here to support, not take over. Work in partnership with teachers, listen actively, and share ideas respectfully.
4. Keep Things Professional
Dress appropriately for a school setting. No swearing, shouting, or behavior that disrupts learning.
5. Protect and Empower Children
Follow all child protection guidelines. No physical punishment, favoritism, or inappropriate conduct. Always seek guidance when in doubt.
6. Use Tech Wisely
Phones are great for taking memories — but not during class time. Get consent before taking photos of children, and always respect privacy rules.
7. Stay Substance-Free
No drugs or alcohol during program hours or on school premises. We're here to set a good example.
8. Bring Good Vibes
Positive energy, patience, and a sense of humor go a long way — especially when working with kids!
