Since our last update, meaningful progress has continued across our programs in Mozambique, Ethiopia, and Namibia, while also laying the groundwork for expansion into new countries across the African continent. Through leadership development, teacher training, and regional collaboration, our programs are steadily strengthening access to quality STEM education for youth.
Mozambique:
Students continue to build on their robotics pathway, applying their technical skills while also engaging more deeply in global collaboration. In October 2025, students from the Mozambique program traveled to Chicago to participate in our Cultural Exchange alongside students from Mexico. During this experience, they took part in hands-on robotics activities, computer restoration workshops, and cross-cultural learning opportunities that reinforced both technical growth and global citizenship.
Ethiopia:
In Ethiopia, we have appointed a new program coordinator who will play a key role in strengthening our teacher training strategy. This coordinator will support the training and preparation of students from Haile Manas Academy to become future instructors, enabling them to teach and support other programs across the African continent. This approach reinforces sustainability, local leadership, and long-term program impact.
Namibia:
Our program in Namibia continues to advance, with students actively engaged in robotics instruction and hands-on learning. The program remains an important foundation for future regional collaboration and exchange.
We continue to move forward with expansion plans in Nigeria and Cameroon. In Cameroon, a digital integration and robotics course has already been successfully delivered, demonstrating strong student engagement and local interest. In addition, we are in the early stages of opening a new program in Sierra Leone, further extending our reach in the region
