Duara means circle.
Community, wholeness, and giving and receiving in balance — at the heart of a new kind of school for a new generation.
Making quality education accessible — and owned locally.
Duara transforms communities by turning passionate female teachers into School Entrepreneurs who own and run microschools — offering accessible, high-quality education to families in their own communities. Each school is locally rooted, financially viable, and part of an interconnected network.
The system was never built for most families.
The reasons are ones we know too well. Good education exists, but the highest quality stays out of reach for the families who need it most. At the same time, passionate female teachers long to bring change to their own communities, and have nowhere to build it.
A human-centred model.
People long to belong, to connect, to have agency, to be trusted — and to trust. Everything we build rests on that.
…held together by love, excellence, and humility.
How we work, and hold each other.
Intentionally lean.
Each person carries meaningful scope — the leadership layer of the team Duara grows into.
Guided by deep expertise.
