In support of Save the Children’s Safe Schools Common Approach, Epson Philippines donated 24 printers and 90 bottles of inks to 24 schools, 8,830 learner beneficiaries, and 336 teacher beneficiaries in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM). Save the Children Philippines carefully chose the academic institutions in need of technical assistance within the region for this endeavor.
Safe Schools Common Approach is a partnership between the Save the Children and the BARMM to ensure the fulfillment of children’s rights during situations of armed conflict and other emergencies, including calamities and the COVID-19 pandemic. This program is an all-inclusive, all-hazards approach to keeping children safe in and around schools. Its goal is to bridge the digital divide and divisions in communities through inclusive education & technology that promotes justice, peace, and overall development for all and future generations of the Bangsamoro people.
