The problem we're addressing revolves around the lack of access to education in rural areas and those affected by conflicts and population displacement outside of Sudan. In these regions, students face challenges in accessing education due to ongoing conflicts and their repercussions, which impact educational and security infrastructures. Additionally, girls' education faces additional challenges in these environments due to cultural and social factors. This problem has both local and global implications, as the lack of education hinders individuals' opportunities in life and their contribution to sustainable development, affecting the future generation.Furthermore, many Sudanese find that the available English-language education meets only a minimal portion, approximately 2%, of the overall educational needs in the country. This exacerbates challenges in accessing quality and effective education in their communities, reducing their opportunities for decent employment and comprehensive development.
