Our Team

TAREO endeavors to represent the public’s best interests, and we focus on issues such as digital divide, children and youths empowerment, education and technology, health, social welfare and global humanitarian outreach. The primary purposes of the board is to ensure the organization is on track in regard to meeting its goals, as well as to craft policies supporting those goals.

TAREO wouldn’t be possible without the help of countless people. Our centers and projects need a lot of man- and womanpower and we’re happy about every single helping hand. We cannot list every single person but here you find the most active ones listed.

Administration and Teachers

An organization like ours needs people to shift tasks, resources and information from one point to another. The administrative people keep TAREO running and constantly developing.

Our teachers are the deliverers of the education we want to bring to people and communities suffering from poverty and discrimination.
