The Supply partners with low-cost private secondary schools in urban slums to collaboratively integrate a service learning curriculum. Why service learning and civic education? Because the root problem of urban slums is not only extreme poverty but also the exclusion and exploitation of human rights. Today, there are 1 billion slum dwellers—a number expected to grow to 3 billion by 2050. More than half will be youth under the age of 18. The Supply doesn’t see this as a problem, but as an opportunity—to activate the next generation of leaders and changemakers who will create the cities of tomorrow.
