Out-of-school and vulnerable youth are given an alternative pathway to education and accreditation through non-formal education (NFE). World Education has been instrumental in creating two paths to accreditation for youth in NFE programs through PLE advocacy efforts: 1) displaced students in Thailand can earn Thai accreditation by completing a NFE curriculum modified specifically for their situation or 2) migrant youth returning to school in Myanmar (Burma) can earn certification through Myanmar’s non-formal primary education (NFPE) curriculum. In summary, NFE programs include:
- Thai-accredited NFE
- Myanmar NFPE in PLE-supported NFE centers
