Abstract

Education is one of the important sectors of any economy; however, its relative importance is even more decisive in defining the future trajectory of a developing country. In order to address educational needs of Sindh, many non-governmental organizations have been playing active roles. Rashid Memorial Welfare Organization (RMWO) is one such organization, following the multidimensional model of poverty reduction by serving health, education and employment needs of Tando Allahyar town through its Rashidabad City project. The focus of current study is to analyze the contributions of RMWO in the education sector. For this purpose, teachers and students have been sampled from three schools within Rashidabad and four public schools outside Rashidabad to judge the quality of education at the surveyed schools. Results showed that the quality of schools is perceived better at schools within Rashidabad as compared to those located outside.
