Helping people
to help themselves
Education represents a powerful tool for generating
jobs, improving incomes, and expanding the opportunities
available to young people in developing countries.
TeachAManToFish
is creating an international network
of agricultural schools & partner NGOs committed to sustainable
approaches to tackling rural poverty.
We want to make the benefits of a vocational
education open to all who want it, and support those
organisations who share this aim.
What
can we do for you? As a networkTeachAManToFish
offers agricultural schools a chance to interact with other
such institutions - to share innovations and spread best practise.
From online forums, to regular
conferences, we're actively working on a range of opportunities
for network members to come together and share ideas and experiences.

A Focus on Self-Sufficiency
Practising what we preach Creating jobs requires creating entrepreneurs. We believe
that the most successful institutions at producing graduates
equipped for running their own businesses are those that themselves
take an entrepreneurial approach to managing their programmes.
Raising
school income
By incorporating production into the educational process not
only can students gain a first-hand knowledge of the subjects
they study, but useful income can be generated to finance
academic overheads.
A
realistic long-term goal
Could a school eventually be 100% financially self-sufficient?
We're certain of it. One of our first schools is now covering
over half of its recurring costs in this way while meeting
internationally recognised standards for excellence in education.
