"The big picture is this: South Sudan is the newest nation on the world's stage, and we have the incredible opportunity to serve our fellow global citizens in the baby steps of their educational progress. The effort of this cause is to train local teachers, administrators, and principals to work together to create a lasting school system in one city, and let those leaders teach their neighboring c
ities how to do the same. The neighboring cities in turn do the same until the whole country is properly equipped to educate the next generation of kids! This obviously happens over a long period of time, but there are teams that go over to South Sudan every few months to make sure the leaders are reproducing methods that will sustain their education system. The best part is this: the job of the American volunteers is only to equip a group of Sudan leaders until the model is reproducible. Eventually, the system will sustain itself, and it will be run by native South Sudanese instead of transplant Americans!"
