Knowledge Ark (KnowArk) Information

Knowledge Ark (KnowArk) is a global education nonprofit expanding access to internationally recognized high school education and practical life skills for refugee learners—wherever they are. Through a flexible online academy and partnerships with community-based, brick-and-mortar learning centers, KnowArk is building a pathway from secondary education to university, Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET), and meaningful economic opportunity. Our mission aligns with UNHCR’s 2030 goal to expand refugee access to tertiary education from approximately 1% to 15%. Over the next decade, we aim to support 250,000 refugee graduates by creating a scalable model that can serve learners across more than 195 countries. At full scale, KnowArk intends to enroll at least 24,000 students annually across grade levels, while also delivering its curriculum through partner schools to help another 24,000 refugee high-school students graduate each year. Education should not be determined by displacement. KnowArk exists to make sure it isn’t. EIN: 33-2373713
