The software can be adapted to each child’s cultural and linguistic context, enabling deployments in multiple countries, languages, and contexts — in-school, out-of-school, and refugee camps. Our evidence-based model, rigorously proven across nine randomized controlled trials (RCTs), currently operates in seven Sub-Saharan African countries, delivering measurable learning gains in some of the world’s most challenging environments.

To achieve this, we require a workforce development partner who can mee
