Why COBURWAS regards Education as the key to success?

The role of education in eradicating poverty cannot be overstated. An education is perhaps a child’s strongest barrier to poverty.

It lowers birth rates, increases economic productivity and equips children with the skills necessary to participate in the workplace.

The power of an education continues to provide benefits to subsequent generations as educated adults tend to marry later in life, have healthier children, be more productive at work, receive better pay in the workplace and generally enjoy greater health.

Education is the foundation for higher living standards and an important tool in the long-term eradication of poverty.
