We see girls’ education as the starting point for social change.

Tackling the world’s biggest issues needs the resources, innovation and collaboration of the private sector. At CAMFED we build partnerships with companies that are purpose-driven, and looking for ways to engage their brand, employees and customers with scalable change.

Discover the benefits for your business and transform engagement with your CSR strategy when you join CAMFED’s network of partners who are supporting girls to complete school and become tomorrow’s entrepreneurs and leaders.

As a key partner, Pearson developed BTEC resources for CAMFED Guides. The BTEC qualification is highly valuable to CAMFED Guides and forms part of a sustainable incentive package that supports learners and certifies their skills and experience.
