Latin America & the Caribbean

Overview

EDC partners with communities to design and implement equitable education and workforce development programs tailored to local needs.

Our basic education initiatives include interactive audio instruction (IAI)—a distance learning technology we developed—to reach learners in remote underserved areas. We work with local leaders to guide research-driven improvements in education, support early childhood learning and health, promote scientific literacy and citizen science, and advance substance misuse prevention. Through workforce development programs, we equip youth with market-aligned skills, offering evidence-based interventions that open new and positive pathways for young people.
