Bridges to impact through innovative EdTech: Forging links between policy, research and practice
Project Abstract

This project responds to the urgent need for equitable learning access and outcomes for children in conflict-affected countries. The project will implement a proven education technology called “Can’t Wait to Learn” (CWTL). This custom-made gaming technology is designed to tackle learning quality, reach, equity, and challenges faced by refugees and displaced children.

CWTL is a curriculum-based and contextually customized solution for numeracy and reading in Arabic and English that promotes active learning and adapts to different learning levels and speeds. Rooted in research based on best practices in education technology in emergencies, CWTL is being implemented in Lebanon, Jordan, Uganda, Sudan, and eastern Chad.

The general objective of this project is to determine how education technology innovations can be adapted and scaled to improve education access and quality for refugee and displaced children in Chad, Sudan, and Uganda.
