MO*dderschools – basic equipment for a basic right
Quality education is a right. But worldwide, it is still far from reality.
In a feature by the magazine MO, extremely vulnerable schools were brought into focus — often located in remote, rural areas with hardly any resources.
They were given the unflattering name “mud schools”: places where students learn barefoot, teachers are underpaid, and even the basics are missing — desks, books, electricity.
And yet, these schools do not give up. Their teachers are often heroes: creative, resilient, and dedicated to their students every single day, despite all challenges.
Why Equator gives them extra support
These schools want to take part in international projects. Their students have just as many dreams, just as much right to connection and exchange. But the barriers are high.
That’s why Equator chooses to give them extra support. We look for resources to:
- help cover internet costs and purchase audiovisual equipment,
- buy learning materials,
- make their participation in twin school projects feasible,
- or enable them to organise their own community action.
This way, they too get the chance to participate fully — and that makes a world of difference.
For the school, for the students, and for how their community sees them.
Equator believes that true collaboration starts with equality — and that means bringing the most vulnerable players on board as well.
