- United World Schools (UWS) is a UK registered charity that aims to 'teach the unreached' by building and developing community schools for out-of-school children in South East Asia. The charity operates schools in Cambodia Myanmar (Burma), and Nepal. United World Schools have an education model whereby they partner with national governments and local communities to build schools, and also to build capacity locally so that each school can transition into government hands within seven years. The charity also twins some of the community schools it develops with other schools in more affluent parts of the world. These schools help fund the UWS schools. and use the school partnership in curriculum areas such as global citizenship and International Baccalaureate studies. Some schools also provide volunteers for the schools and visit their UWS School. Schools are also funded by donations from individuals and organisations. To date, United World Schools has opened a total of 250 new schools, trained over 1,200 teachers and given educational opportunities to more than 43,000 previously out-of-school children across Cambodia, Myanmar and Nepal. United World Schools regularly receives recognition and awards for its work. (en)
