Amir's Story | The 180 Challenge. Meet Amir - the 6-year-old boy from rural Nepal who inspired our 180 Challenge. Before lockdown, it took 6-year-old Amir 180 minutes to walk to and from school every day. Now, his school is shut completely. In the region of Nepal where Amir lives, less than a third of the population completes primary school, which keeps those most marginalised trapped in a preventable cycle of poverty and illiteracy - and due to COVID-19, accessing a safe, quality education is more difficult than ever before. We're working with The Drum, Shutterstock and industry experts to encourage you to #Pulla180 on this education crisis. Join the 180 Challenge today: https://www.unitedworldschools.org/the-180-challenge

#Pulla180 to turn children's lives around. The 180 Challenge is inspired by the story of 6-year-old Amir who before Covid-19 had to walk for 180 minutes to and from school every single day; that’s three hours of clambering up steep hills and through dense vegetation, with the risk of landslides during the monsoon. Right now, 59 million primary-aged children across the world are already missing out on education, and the rapid spread of a new Covid-19 variant in Nepal means that accessing a safe, quality education is more difficult than ever before. United World Schools is working hard to bring education closer to children like Amir, because every child has the right to go to school. #Pulla180 before 29 July 2021 and the UK government will DOUBLE your donations and fundraising! https://www.unitedworldschools.org/Appeal/the-180-challenge-donate
