Chronic underfunding
Runs on low-cost tablets already in circulation. No servers, no per-learner licences.
Teacher shortages
Facilitator-led, not teacher-dependent. Community facilitators onboard in hours.
Overcrowded classrooms
Each child works at their own level in rotating shared-device sessions.
When families move, learning moves with them.
Floods, drought and displacement now interrupt schooling faster than any other cause. The resilience proven in conflict applies here.
Shock
Flood or drought closes schools for weeks.
Displacement
Families relocate, often across districts.
Temporary sites
Learning restarts in camps and host communities.
Re-entry
Progress resumes at the child's own level.
Schematic — replace with measured programme data.
Continuity is the whole point
Pre-loaded content and portable learner profiles mean a displaced child does not restart from zero.
More than an app — a complete offline kit
We procure and configure devices, headphones and software for each setting, then co-design the game itself with the children who'll use it.
Protected tablets
Locked to safe learning tools, configured before delivery.
Headphones & power
Chargers, cases and transport boxes for shared classroom use.
Offline software
Lessons, feedback and progress continue with no live connection.
Local support
Facilitator training, maintenance and ongoing improvement.
Children shape the world they learn in
Workshops with children explore language, daily life and national curricula — and, working with trauma-aware researchers, which colours, objects, sounds and symbols feel safe or carry difficult associations. The result: one game engine, a different visual world for every country.
One learning model, different visual worlds
A guide who looks like the children they teach
Every country gets its own pair of guides — one for reading, one for maths — drawn from workshops with local children.
