Our Educational Services
Fundasaun Alola's Education and Literacy Program has facilitated and implemented programs for various schools in Timor-Leste. In partnership with Ministry of Education in Timor-Leste, Fundasaun Alola selects schools annually at which to conduct school visits and training. In 2010, the Education and Literacy Program established a Resource Centre to model best practice teaching and learning, and to function as a centre to promote education for community children.
School Visits in Dili
The Schools Visits Program is a branch program of the Education Teaching and Learning Program for implementing the best practice teaching and learning models. This program is implemented as a way of promoting local resources created by the staff of Fundasaun Alola, which can be used as teaching tools and to model various active and integrated teaching and learning methodologies, as well as to meet the specific needs of students and teachers in Timor-Leste.

The Fundasaun Alola Education Program in Dili
The Education Resource Centre was established with the purpose of delivering various educational programs, and to facilitate a friendly space for teaching and learning where teachers, students, parents and children of all ages are welcomed. The resource centre program is based on the curriculum of Timor-Leste, and aims to model best practice integrated and active teaching and learning, as well as promote the use of local materials as teaching tools. The centre further aims to support teachers, students, school communities, and parents so they can increase their knowledge and understanding of ways to assist their children's educational progress before and during formal schooling.
