In truth, Afrelib’s work in Europe started as a consequence of efforts in West Africa. As Afrelib worked with various stakeholders in West Africa to establish a workable approach to the challenges on the ground, opportunities to work with UK schools arose.
It was decided to focus on areas of need notably children with Special Needs Education and Disabilities (SEND) and children in economically disadvantaged communities. In both of these communities, huge challenges exist and any help Afrelib can contribute in order to improve life chances is welcome.
