SmallWorld’s work in Bangladesh demonstrates how education, skills training, and employment pathways can break the cycle of child labor and poverty.

By supporting working children through integrated education and vocational training, SmallWorld helped transform necessity into opportunity—enabling children to continue supporting their families while building job-ready skills for long-term employment. This approach delivers measurable social impact, strengthens community resilience, and advances socio-economic development through inclusive learning, school and community partnerships, and opportunities for volunteers, students, and institutional partners to contribute to sustainable change. Ultimately, when learning is practical, inclusive, and connected to real jobs, children gain dignity, stability, and a sustainable future they can shape for themselves.
