The Power of Education in Times of War
Session Description
In times of war, education is not just a pathway to opportunity—it is a lifeline and a tool for resilience. If you want to make a real impact in a child's life, nothing is more powerful than giving them the gift of education. Through the life changing work of Horizons Academy, Al Nayzak, and our incredible global partners like Second Chance, Purdue University, and Notre Dame University, we’ll show how education is lighting the way for students in Gaza, Ukraine, Syria, Lebanon, Afghanistan and Africa, even in the darkest times. This session will offer you the chance to learn how you can help build pathways for these students and how the international ACAC community can unite to create life-changing opportunities. Join us, and together let’s build a future where every child has the chance to rise, no matter the odds.
