EAA Foundation, David Webb partner to expand education access

Education Above All (EAA) Foundation, a global foundation committed to enhancing access to quality education and economic opportunities, is collaborating with esteemed New York jewellery house David Webb at the Doha Jewellery and Watches Exhibition (DJWE) 2026. The two-year partnership aims to support children who are currently excluded from school.

The initiative combines the fields of craftsmanship, creativity, and philanthropy. The profits generated by an exclusive David Webb capsule collection will be dedicated to EAA Foundation's work in partnership with buildOn, a non-profit organization that strives to widen access to primary education.

The collaboration's centerpiece is a collection featuring David Webb's renowned Nail and Oval Link designs, reinterpreted in rose gold and inspired by the hues of Qatar's sunsets and desert landscape. This collection not only showcases exquisite craftsmanship but also carries a deeper purpose: to create pathways to education for children and communities who face barriers to learning.

The funds raised through this collection will support EAA Foundation and buildOn's Enrol Out-of-School Children (OOSC) Project, focusing on breaking the cycle of poverty in Burkina Faso, Guatemala, Haiti, Mali, Nepal, and Senegal. The project emphasizes community engagement in the pursuit of educational access and the creation of lasting opportunities for children.

Speaking on the collaboration, Mana al-Ansari, Chief Economic Empowerment Officer at the EAA Foundation, highlighted the transformative power of education: "Education is one of the most potent investments we can make in a child's future and in the resilience of communities. Our partnership with David Webb illustrates how creativity, entrepreneurship, and philanthropy can unite to tackle educational barriers. When a child gains access to education, the ripple effects extend to families, communities, and future generations."

Amber Ahmed, general manager of the Middle East for David Webb, shared her perspective on the collaboration: "Jewellery has the unique ability to convey stories, and this partnership elevates it to something far more profound: the promise of possibility. Education Above All's mission is about creating avenues where they can have a lasting impact, and we are honored to support that vision through the creativity and expertise that define our House.

Our goal with this collaboration was to produce something beautiful, joyful, and above all, purposeful — something our clients can appreciate, knowing their purchase embodies far greater significance."
