Community Participatory Education & Theater (CPET)

Community Participatory Education & Theater (CPET)

Is designed to bring critical literacy support to communities to compliment basic education. Low literacy levels have been shown to contribute to poverty and deprivation. RWS is designed to facilitate the unlocking of opportunities that abound for poverty reduction and improved livelihoods through access to information and knowledge acquisition and creation. RWS provides a platform for parents, teachers and other stakeholders in society to work together, to raise literacy levels among young people so as to use literacy for facilitating positive behaviour development/change among the youth and the communities in which they live..
