NEW YORK, Oct. 4, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- In response to the evolving humanitarian crisis in Haiti, Education Cannot Wait (ECW) announced today a US$11.8 million Multi-Year Resilience Programme that seeks to mobilize an additional $16.2 million to reach more than 45,000 children with holistic educational supports.

El proyecto ‘La educación no puede esperar’ que cuenta con el apoyo de Education Cannot Wait y World Vision, en  Norte de Santander, ha hecho entrega a cinco instituciones educativas de Cúcuta y de las comunas cercanas, de aulas rehabilitadas y baños de niñas y niños para aumentar la calidad y el acceso a la educación.
