Asmara, why don't you go to school?


Asmara, the boys I meet at the market are no exception. All around the world millions of children have no access to school. They have to work to earn money for their families. Or their parents cannot afford schoolfees, school uniforms, bus tickets, books and so on. Also in countries with free education there are many costs.

These two boys have to work to get some money to their family. It's about to get food this day and tomorrow. 

Education is development, individually and for societies and nations. One of the most urgent global task is to bring education and a chance for all children.
