In a compelling film for the New York Times, we explore the transformative impact of the Kuwait Fund's investment in education in Cape Verde. Since 1961, the Kuwait Fund has been a beacon of hope in over 100 countries, funding a diverse range of sectors to combat poverty and foster sustainable development.

This story focuses on their significant contribution to Cape Verde's educational landscape. The Fund's investment facilitated the construction and equipping of six secondary schools and two elementary-education teacher training institutions across the nation. This initiative has been pivotal in enhancing access to education and improving its quality.

The film takes you inside these modern, well-equipped schools where students engage in a diverse curriculum, ranging from sciences to languages. The investment has not just built structures but has catalyzed a brighter future for countless students. It's a testament to how targeted support can uplift communities and lay down the foundations for progress and prosperity.
