📚 This #childrensbookweek we celebrate the amazing authors and illustrators we work with. Also co-creating stories with young #neurodivergent writers in Malawi with support from @LEGOfoundation
Excited to be presenting at the @mEducation_A Symposium 2024. With support from @LEGOfoundation, we've been working to centre #neurodivergent voices in our content design and will be sharing key learnings in designing and delivering impactful #EdTech to marginalised learners.
Over half the world’s 43 million refugee children have no access to formal education. Together with @Literacy_Now1 , onebillion supports refugee-led organisations to implement #onetab so children in refugee contexts have access to high-quality learning:

As the second academic term comes to an end, learners have described the period as an exciting learning journey with the tablet learning sessions under the #BEFIT Programme. The learners have explained how the sessions have enhanced their aptitude in languages and mathematics.

Our BEFIT program is making waves at Khonjeni Primary School in Thyolo district! Standard 1 learners at the school are fully engaged in their tablet session, embracing the power of technology for interactive learning.

"Parents, be reassured: Tablets in education are about enhancing, not erasing, the values of traditional teaching in Malawi."

We are part of a consortium implementing a Government of Malawi Programme called BEFIT. It is a national rollout of a tablet-based learning intervention for all learners in Standards 1-4 in all public primary schools, reaching about 3.8 million learners in 6,000 schools.

"I dream of a future where every child in Dzaleka Refugee Camp has the opportunity to embark on a similar educational journey, where tablets help even the playing field as a tool for empowerment and growth — wherever you are." ow.ly/4IxY50PzCox @onebillion #edtech
