Improving educational outcomes by upgrading infrastructure at Solomon Island primary and secondary schools

VINE Capacity Building SI project has a heart for creating opportunity and building pathways out of poverty through improved educational outcomes in the Solomon Islands.

# Distribution of library books and teaching resources throughout key primary & secondary schools.

# Completion of a swing bridge to facilitate access at Kukudu College campus.

# Provision of tertiary education scholarships for key personnel.

# Facilitate training of nationals and provision of dental services via investment in mobile dental clinics for the Honiara General Hospital.
