EDUCATION WITHOUT BORDERS (EwB) is a Canadian non-profit foundation created in 2002. It obtained its charitable status in March 2003. The mandate of this Foundation is to foster educational opportunities and provide educational facilities in disadvantaged regions of the world.
UN PANEL DISCUSSION Education without Borders has been invited to participate, via video-conference, in a UN-sponsored event on August 12. According to our invitation, we will join "representatives from other organizations such as Engineers Without Borders, Doctors Without Borders, and Reporters Without Borders. Recognizing the great goals that all of these organizations have, we feel it would be greatly beneficial to have these organizations come together at this panel to talk about the work that is being done about the world." The panel is part of a three-day UN youth assembly on Millennium Development Goals and youth empowerment. |
