Completed : LODWAR – TURKANA EDUCATION CENTER – 2 CLASSROOMS AND DESKS

About the Project

The Turkana Educational Center has seen great improvements over recent years, leading to a massive increase in enrollment. Students travel long distances to go to school and despite past construction efforts, the current capacity continues to be exceeded.  Currently, students are packed tight within the existing structures (see photos below). Such dense conditions can often serve as a detriment to students’ learning. Two additional classrooms will allow for more spacious and therefore more comfortable learning conditions.
