IDP Foundation partners with Opportunity International to expand the Rising Schools Program to Northern Ghana

By partnering with IDP Foundation, we're using catalytic financing to reduce risk for local lenders and expand access to capital for affordable private schools, helping more children in Northern Ghana access a quality education closer to home.

Addressing a Critical Gap Affordable non-state schools in Northern Ghana play a vital complementary role in expanding education access, particularly in areas where public school provision is limited or overcrowded.

Together, the two organizations will launch a revolving fund dedicated to school lending designed to bring affordable school improvement loans and school management training to affordable non-state schools serving rural and underserved communities across Northern Ghana.
