EIDU’s Post

💥Reflecting on an inspiring week at EIDU Leadership Week! Grateful for the opportunity to collaborate, learn, and grow with fellow leaders dedicated to shaping the future of digital learning. Here's to applying these insights to drive positive change! 🚀#LeadershipWeek #DigitalLearning #ContinuousGrowth

We had the privilege of participating in a profound discussion at the recent Founders Forum, where our Founder and CTO Bernd Roggendorf joined David Goldberg of Founders Pledge alongside George Bevis of Crucible and Kathryn Petralia of the CARE board. The discussion centred about insights to the journey of harnessing entrepreneurial spirit to improve lives and uplift communities wordwide. It was a pleasure to take part in this uplifting event! #FoundersForum #WhereTheFutureUnfolds #FFGlobal2024

This past week, the EIDU leadership team from our #Nairobi and #Berlin offices came together for an inspiring offsite meeting in Brandenburg, Germany. It was a fantastic opportunity for us to set priorities for the remaining months of 2024, and to align on strategy for the upcoming year. Meeting in person has fostered and reinforced our connections amongst the team – and left us all super inspired by the dedication and innovative spirit that each and every one brings to our mission! As EIDU continues to grow, we're excited about the new paths we're forging in education. #Follow us for updates, and join us on our journey! 📸 Photos: Jim Gramming / www.jimgramming.com #EIDU #Leadership #Team #DigitalEducation #InnovationInEducation

We are thrilled to announce yet another significant milestone in our mission to enhance educational opportunities across Kenya: EIDU has signed Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) with all 10 counties of the Frontier Counties Development Council (FCDC) to implement our digital learning program. This will benefit as much as 150,000 pre-primary learners in this vital region.  This collaboration marks a groundbreaking initiative to bring our digital learning solutions to more and more learners, an economic bloc dedicated to transformative growth and development. By integrating our education platform into public schooling, we aim to empower young learners with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed. Each county in the FCDC will benefit from tailored educational programs designed to meet the unique needs of their communities. This extensive rollout underscores our commitment to making quality education accessible to every learner – regardless of their location.

We are very excited to share some encouraging words from Hon. Isaac Mwaura regarding EIDU's digital learning initiatives: During a recent visit to Menengai Integrated Primary School, the Spokesman of the Kenyan government applauded our partnership and efforts in digitising education and optimising learning outcomes for already over 250,000 pre-primary learners across Kenya. Hon. Mwaura recognised the demonstrated scalability of the EIDU programme and expressed government support for scaling it beyond pre-primary grades. This signifies a monumental step! We are hopeful about expanding our reach to meet the needs of 8 million primary learners, and look forward to working closely with the Kenyan government to bring the EIDU digital learning platform to students nationwide. #EIDU #DigitalEducation #EdTech #LearningTransformation #KenyaEducation
