Department of Education's Case Studies

Over 26,000 Tibetan children are in primary and secondary schools under the care of department of Education.  Many of the students are able to go to school and do not need help.  Unfortunately it is the poorest family with large number of children who need the help.  The department wants to ensure these children get a fair chance in life and get opportunities to escape from their families' poverty.
