Driving Home the Call for Education for All
Friends and supporters joined NetAid in Georgia last week to tell
leaders at the G8 Summit that the international community must do
more to put the world's children into school. An increase of $5.6
billion per year, roughly what the U.S. alone spends in Iraq each
month, is what's needed to help achieve this. Currently the
international community spends only $1.2 billion annually on basic
education.
In the run up to next year's G8 Summit in the UK, NetAid and its
partners will continue their efforts to bring political attention to
the need to ensure education for all children. We hope that you'll
keep informed of the latest NetAid activities and campaigns to help
achieve Education for All.
All the
best,
David Morrison, President

In Iraq, the Priority is
Community
It was a year ago that Michael Cooper
flew to Iraq, helping to reconstruct a region south of
Baghdad. His team learned quickly that progress—and
safety—would not be possible without the help of the local
community.
