educational Organization for xeroderma pigmentosum patients in Egypt as they 're marginalized in the Arab world

Elevator pitch

What is your solution?

my solution is a night learning organization for xderma pigmentosum patients in egypt and it'll accept any patient from any country as they 're marginalized in the arab countries and they can't study or do anything so this organization 'll give them Various classes in science, history, geography, space and we can add extra subjects after that and the other important classes 'll make them work online like programming and designs classes so we can let them study and work like anyone ....the second section in that organization 'll be for talents and hobbies like music, drawing, writing and reading ...also there 'll be sports and social events

finally we 'll give who wants to take high school diploma the chance by learning them english in the organization and helping them apply to an online accredited school in usa that accepts student from all over the world with any age and any educational background as they can't do that in the arab world because they 're different ages and even if any school accepted them they 'll have to go in the morning and that will lead them to death

What specific problem are you trying to solve?

the problem is xderma pigmentosum patiens who can't go outside because of the sun .they 're suffering in the arab countries they don't 've any help and no interest they can't study and can't do any thing and just staying at home to survive ..i watched two mothers speaking about their daughters one of them said We sacrificed our daughter's education to keep her alive and the another mother said I will take my daughter to a psychiatrist because of her lack of social life and she always sits alone ..it's so cruel thing..so it 's very big problem for those people as they Deserve better life like normal people and also Because of the ignorance of that disease, they are being bullied

so the consequences result from the problem is very cruel for the patients and make their lives without meaning

about the numbers i can't mention specific number so by reasearching what i know is The highest number of infection with this disease is found in the Arab countries and This is an explanation of the infection rates in the world

north africa (1 out of every 10000) Europe ( 1 out of every 100000) America ( 1 out of every 1000000) the arab world Especially the Arab Maghreb is more than 3000 patient 1000 of them are in Tunisia

Who does your solution serve? In what ways will the solution impact their lives?

my solution serve xderma pigmentosum patiens or moon children In Arab Countries as they cannot be exposed to sunlight and this can lead to death and the Arab countries do not provide them with any assistance so they 're suffering at their homes with nothing no learning no social life

my solution 'll change their lives a lot it 'll give them what they need like any normal person they 'll be educated , they can enjoy different activities , have social life and make friends This solution will change the lives of many current and future patients.

What steps have you taken to understand the needs of the population you want to serve?

i searched a lot and watched a lot of videos of the patients and their family talking about their problems and how they suffer i learned about them from their experience with this disease and i understood their exact problems and what they need to end this suffering

Which aspects of the Challenge does your solution most closely address?

Other: Addressing an unmet social, environmental, or economic need not covered in the four dimensions above

What is the unmet need that your solution tried to address? Why is it important?

I could not specify the field of learning in general because my solution targets a specific group and they are moon's patients and not just in education but also socially
So I think the appropriate classification for it is education and caring for moon's patients

it 's important because they 're humans and deserve normal life like everyone
