Since our foundation in 1995, our supporters have educated tens of thousands of children from 12 different countries

Today our Pestalozzi World core programme involves the education of children in three ‘home from home’ Villages in India, Zambia and Nepal. Regarded as centres of excellence for child-centred care, our Villages allow us to cost effectively educate children in their country of origin.

What does Pestalozzi World do?

In poor rural areas of India, Nepal and Zambia our experts work with communities to select the brightest 10 year old children (two girls for each boy) among those held back by extreme rural poverty, displacement due to conflict, gender stereotypes, poor education and the pressure to work and earn a living.

With the encouragement of their families, we offer these children the opportunity to leave behind these difficulties, and move to one of our Pestalozzi Villages where they receive:

You invest and educate

And they change their worlds

Give the gift of education

Together we are shaping a new generation which has the tools and compassion needed to influence others and to do great things for their communities and change lives

The Girl Effect

Pestalozzi World believes in the power of girls to change the world…and the power of education to change the fate of girls.

Education can change the fate of girls. Ensuring that girls get a secondary education is one of the most effective ways to avert child marriage, early pregnancy and unemployment. This is why two out of every three children we select are female.

The girls who join our programme are given the tools and support they need to become future leaders and change-makers – and exceptional role models for other girls from their communities.
