Education
Empowering vulnerable communities through education, both traditional and modern, is one of the primary goals of Gebrher . We strive to improve the education of all needy children in vulnerable communities, especially those who are orphans, with disabilities, victims of abuse and neglect and trafficking. Our education program also has an adult program. Education has the following components:
Basic Literacy and Numeracy Program
The basic literacy program will employ a mixed model of traditional and modern literacy approaches. Basic literacy in the sense of the basic reading skill / fluency development will follow the traditional church education model whereas the basic writing and advanced comprehension skills development will be based on modern approaches.
The basic numeracy program will be based on a problem solving approach where by learners apply basic numeracy skills in their daily lives.
