Education NGOs and CSOs in Kiribati

The work of non-governmental organisations (NGOs) such as Te Toa Matoa has been valuable towards the attainment of Education for All (EFA) goals. Te Toa Matoa is a disabled people’s organisation whose aim is to promote disability awareness in all Kiribati’s communities. Its activities have helped change attitudes towards the disabled and made schools more inclusive towards the disabled. Other education NGOs are church-based, with the Kiribati Protestant Church aiding in the establishing of schools and other educational infrastructure, and general education programmes.
