provide improved education

outcomes to over

150,000marginalised children in Kenya


Avanti‘s network provides data communications that help deliver effective

international development programmes:

Over one million children in Kenya do not regularly attend school, marginalised by a myriad of social issues

Led by Avanti, Project iMlango is a first of its kind e-learning partnership, created to deliver improved educational

outcomes in maths, literacy and life skills for 150,000 school aged children in Kenya

At the heart of Project iMlango sits a dynamic internet learning platform, accessed through high speed satellite

connectivity, where partners provide students with interactive

educational content

Combining a fully integrated e-learning platform with

robust measurement over three years, the project

clearly demonstrates the numerous benefits of

broadband enablement by satellite to rural schools.

The programme has clear applications across the

education sector in Sub-Saharan Africa
