More Details

Summary:

Each year, over one-fifth of Bangladesh suffers from flooding. And when water overtakes already struggling roads, much of life is put on hold -- including kids' education. But if children can't travel to the classroom, architect and entrepreneur Mohammed Rezwan thought, why not have it travel to them? Welcome aboard the Shidhulai Swanirvar Sangstha floating school -- a network of boats that's both school bus and schoolhouse for students ages six to ten in Northern Bangladesh. Great Big Story is proud to support Global Citizen's mission to end extreme poverty by 2030.
