Education
Greater Action is dedicated to providing quality education opportunities for refugee children, with a special focus on girls who face greater disadvantages.
Our mission is to ensure that every refugee child, aged 5 to 18, has access to quality education. Through our partnerships with three local refugee learning centers in the Ampang area, we offer a strong educational foundation and IGCSE preparation, nurturing a lifelong passion for learning.
6 Reasons to Sponsor a Refugee Child's Education
A Basic Human Right:
Every child, regardless of their background or refugee status, deserves access to education. This fundamental right is recognized in global human rights conventions, emphasizing the importance of education for all
Hope and Stability:
In times of crisis, education offers stability and a path to a brighter future.
Protection from Harm:
Education shields refugee children from dangers like forced labour, exploitation, and child marriage.
Breaking Barriers for Girls:
Your support helps ensure refugee girls receive the opportunities they deserve to learn, grow, and succeed.
Lifelong impact:
Education transforms not only the child’s future but also their community for generations to come.
Empowerment for Independence:
It provides the skills and knowledge refugees need to lead independent, fulfilling lives.

ENGLISH CLASSES ACADEMY
We teach English to refugee women, giving them the skills to communicate, integrate, and sustain themselves through work, education, locally and globally. This helps them build independent, secure futures for themselves and their families.
We have put together a four-tier conversational English course specifically designed for the community’s needs and tailored to be delivered online. Since the academy’s inception, over 200 students have benefitted from our course. We have 15 volunteer teachers who teach online. We have students from different refugee communities like Afghanistan, Somalia, Pakistan, etc.
