The Education Above All Foundation (EAA), a global education institution, and Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance have signed a partnership agreement supported by the Qatar Fund For Development (QFFD).
The agreement aims to increase collaboration across education and immunisation activities among some of the world's most marginalised communities. The partnership is supported by a QFFD pledge, covering the period from 2021 to 2025, with a total commitment of $10mn. The signed agreement promotes co-operation between EAA and Gavi in lower-income countries where EAA projects are being implemented, such as Pakistan and Bangladesh, to reach out-of-school children and their communities.
Leena al-Derham, the director of External Relations in the Education Above All Foundation, said: "This ceremony is not just a formalisation of our collaboration but a reaffirmation of our shared commitment towards creating a brighter future for millions of children. Our work with Gavi extends beyond conventional frameworks, fostering an innovative approach to address education and health needs simultaneously."
