Teacher Housing in Ouelessebougou

Date Completed: 2023

Partners: Building Youth Around the World

Project Description/Impact:

Teachers are hesitant to teach in rural Mali. Providing housing allows us to attract the nation’s best teachers. We partnered with BYAW to build a teacher’s housing for the Karl and Erika Michel Academy of Ouelessebougou. BYAW kindly donated the funds that will make this housing a reality, helping provide three teacher families with quality homes while they are working in the community of Ouélessébougou. Each home will have two bedrooms and one living room.
