s worldwide to Sudan in 2005," said MacCormack, citing the latest education funding report from UNESCO.

He added: "Direct aid for basic education in Sudan has been severely underfunded. Dubai Cares is to be highly commended to making this new commitment to help educate a generation of children in Sudan."

MacCormack noted that Save the Children Sweden and Save the Children UK will work with Save the Children US in implementing the initiative in communities across Sudan.

Dubai Cares also announced an AED24.5 million, 2-year programmes that will be executed by UNICEF to help more than 700,000 children in Sudan. Benefits delivered by Dubai Cares programmes include construction of 200 single room schools in rural areas of Sudan and training workshops for 200 teachers. In addition, children throughout Sudan will receive textbooks and school supplies and the teachers will receive educational materials.

To date, Dubai Cares has initiated primary education programmes in Djibouti, Sudan and the Naher Al-Bared Palestinian refugee camp in Lebanon. As a result, 2,400 teachers are currently being trained, more than 400 schools are being built/rehabilitated and 50 early child development centres are being established. These as well as other initiatives will help 924,000 children gain access to quality primary education in these countries.

Dubai Cares today unveiled its geographic footprint for Phase One, naming 12 countries that will receive funding for needs-specific primary education programmes to ensure universal access to education in developing nations. The announcement builds on Dubai Cares' current portfolio of education programmes, bringing it closer to achieving its goal of educating one million children as declared by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.

Dubai Cares was launched as a fundraising campaign on 19 September, 2007 by His Highness Sheikh Mo
