"I joined the Aga Khan Academies because the vision of His Highness The Aga Khan was absolutely compelling. I wanted to contribute to giving students of high potential the opportunities for high-quality international education irrespective of the students’ and families’ backgrounds and their ability to pay."

Students: Making the Most Of Their Time at AKA Maputo
“I love the Aga Khan Academy Maputo because of the teachers. Our teachers are very caring and supportive. Unlike my previous school, teachers at the Academy do not only help us in our lessons but they also play with us which makes our learning more enjoyable.”

Alumni: Putting Their Education to Work
“Hearing His Highness the Aga Khan’s speeches about using your knowledge to help others anywhere in the world has become one of my fundamental rules of life. Instilling this idea that I should use my knowledge to help improve the lives of others, not just in my city or country but globally, is what it means to be a global citizen.”
