Tigray Education

The disastrous war has left the once exemplary education infrastructure in Tigray in ruins. Nearly all students in Tigray now do not have sufficient text and reference books, computers, laboratory equipment, etc. A lot of schools don't even have chairs and desks, or even classrooms. Tigray students are three years behind and every effort need to be coordinated to expedite the recovery so that the students can recoup some of the time they lost.

Haben Tigray has developed a very efficient and cost effective Educational technology that will substantially help Tigray's schools and students have access a treasure trove of educational content that can help all levels of education from basic elementary education to high school and beyond including trade and vocational education. This technology can be shared by a great number of users at the same time and does not required internet. The contents can also be accessed using personal devices like tablet and phones. An earlier version of this technology was successfully implemented in Tunaydbah Refugee Center in Sudan with the help of Tigray Disaster Relief FUND and in collaboration with Ethiopian Community Development Council, Inc. and Health Professionals Network for Tigray.

Haben Tigray has very limited capacity to implement this technology through out Tigray and would like to invite partners to make this resource available to as many schools and students of Tigray. Individuals, groups or organizations are welcome to sponsor one or more school(s) in Tigray. Details of the system can be found on our website: https://www.habentigray.org/our-work/education

Together, we can rebuild Tigray schools!

Empower Tigray!
Haben Tigray, in collaboration with Tigray Disaster Relief FUND has launched a program to Empower the girls and women of Tigray by supporting their education and entrepreneurship. With an initial funding of over $63,000, of which $44,000 was donated by Tigray Disaster Relief FUND, 53 girls were awarded scholarship grants and 200 women business owners were given loans to help them reestablish their businesses in four different weredas.
Our people are not waiting for hand outs and Tigray will develop not by handing out aid but by supporting the hard working people in their efforts. Visit www.habentigray.org for full detail.

Empowering women is the key for development.
We are grateful to Tigray Disaster Relief FUND and Raey Hiwot ( www.raeyhiwot.Wordpress.com ), for their trust in Haben Tigray.
