Floating Schools

Partner program

We are proud to support the Floating Schools of Bangladesh, which provide education to children in flood-prone communities through innovative boat-based, solar-powered classrooms. Designed to address the realities of rising seas and climate displacement, the program demonstrates how adaptive education models can expand opportunity in some of the world's most climate-vulnerable regions.

The initiative received the 2025 UNESCO International Literacy Prize in recognition of its integration of education, climate resilience, and clean energy, and has earned multiple United Nations honors and international recognition for its impact. The program has demonstrated measurable success, including a 100% student exam pass rate, increased family incomes, and improved child welfare outcomes for participating communities.
