Peru vs Angola
Side-by-side comparison of how these places approach childhood.
Peru
Peruvian children in the Andes attend school at altitudes above 4,000 meters.
Highland children study at elevations higher than most European mountains, walking mountain trails to reach classrooms where temperatures drop below freezing.
Angola
Angola's children grow up in Africa's second-largest oil producer, yet half live in poverty.
Vast oil wealth coexists with deep child poverty, creating one of Africa's starkest inequality gaps visible in every classroom.
Peru
Peru follows a 6-5-2 system. Spanish is the primary language, with intercultural bilingual education in Quechua, Aymara, and Amazonian languages. Education is free and compulsory from ages 3 to 16. The Qali Warma school feeding program reaches millions.
Angola
Angola follows a 6-3-3 system with Portuguese as the language of instruction. Primary education is free and compulsory for six years. The system was rebuilt after 27 years of civil war that ended in 2002.
