Quality & Innovation
Improve the quality of education through innovation, with a focus on those who are most vulnerable.
Everyone is entitled to a quality education, none more so than the most vulnerable young people in our society. They too deserve the opportunity to fully realise their potential and develop their talents.
The King Baudouin Foundation supports educational organisations that use an innovative approach to deliver a meaningful learning experience, and who monitor young people along their educational journey. That way, they can see for themselves how education can help them define and achieve their goals.
Quality and innovation in brief
- We support organisations that use innovation to provide access to quality education for the most vulnerable young people.
Quality & innovation is part of the programme Education and development of talents
