Abstract:

Universal Education Initiative (UEI), is a student-run nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering vulnerable communities through project-based education.

We are currently working on implementing STEAM programs in local and international global communities, particularly those in the most need. Our organization aims to increase access to quality education at all levels, including technical and vocational education and training (TVET). We believe that education is key to addressing poverty and inequality and hope to create a brighter future for vulnerable communities.
