Join a cohort of Edtech leaders working to improve learning for millions of students in Sub-Saharan Africa
Across low, middle and high income countries, learning poverty is threatening to prevent nations from realising their potential for economic and cultural prosperity. EdTech has the potential to improve teaching and learning on a national scale – but only when it is approached holistically and strategically.
