The Aga Khan Foundation’s Madrasa Early Childhood Programme operates in the three East African countries of Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda. Beginning as a pilot project at the request of the Muslim community in Mombasa, Kenya, it has gone on to help establish over 200 community pre-schools and teach over 67,000 children. Research findings demonstrate that the Madrasa approach makes a real difference in children’s cognitive development and later success in school.
