The term "schools for all" captures the various school-based and school-linked programs that support all human development purposes as well as for ensuring that schools serve all students, especially the disadvantaged and the vulnerable. The term also reflects our view that the needs of the whole child be served. The common interest of the partner organizations that with health, law enforcement, security, social and economic development and environmental sectors when working with school-based and school-linked programs is the focus of this platform.

This program serves these audiences and organizations:
  • practitioners, researchers, officials, policy-makers, parent leaders, and youth representatives by offering a reference tool and several summaries of the evidence, experience and examples on selected issues, programs and practices
  • university and college students and their professors who will be able to use this platform to publish their course work and to present their findings in webinars
  • national and state/provincial ministries and agencies who will both benefit from the shared, applied knowledge when developing policies and programs as well as have the opportunity to be a world leader on topics that they have been addressing
  • international and national networks and non-governmental organizations who can use these summaries for their advocacy or member services activities
