Aga Khan Education Service, Kenya (AKESK)

The Aga Khan Education Services (AKES) was created by Sir Sultan Mahomed Shah Aga Khan III, His Late Highness Prince Karim Aga Khan IV's predecessor and grandfather. Aga Khan Schools were first established as early as 1905. These included a handful of community-based literacy classes in remote rural areas of South East Asia which were strikingly progressive for their time. They put emphasis on accessibility for all communities regardless of socioeconomic status, teaching both girls and boys, and stressing the importance of equitable early childhood education.
