The situation in our country is alarming, only 13% of students who start first grade graduate from high school in due time and form.
There will be a day when all children and young people in Argentina will have access to a quality education.
At Teach for Argentina, we face this reality.
For 15 years, we have been committed to ensuring that all children and young people in the country have access to a quality education, regardless of the context in which they are born and raised. We aim to contribute to the reduction of inequalities by building a movement of leaders committed to the reality of education.
What do we do?
We identify, develop, and connect leaders who are able to work today as teachers that helps increasing the learning of their students and to commit themselves to the profound changes that must occur in the education system to reduce inequality and ensure quality education for all. We do this from the classroom, with highly motivated individuals, and in collaboration with organizations, institutions, governments, and committed communities.
How do we do it?

As professionals graduates of the program, they continue to work on the root causes of educational inequity.
