Uruguay vs Angola
Side-by-side comparison of how these places approach childhood.
Uruguay
Every Uruguayan primary school child receives a free laptop through the Plan Ceibal program.
Uruguay was the first country to implement one-laptop-per-child nationally, giving every public school student a device and internet access since 2007.
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.
Uruguay
Uruguay follows a 6-3-3 system. Spanish is the language of instruction. Education is free, secular, and compulsory from ages 4 to 14. Plan Ceibal provides every student with a laptop and internet connectivity.
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.
