About Afrelib

Afrelib is a social venture that aims to break down barriers to improved learning and better educational outcomes in Africa. The kind of transformational learning we envision for African schools will be accessible to all regardless of technology, infrastructure or cost barriers. In particular, our vision is to make it as easy and fun for the child in the rural area as one in the urban setting to read fantastic stories, write intelligently, learn about their world and gain skills – regardless of circumstance and especially gender.

Our Commitment

Work with schools in Africa and encourage adoption of learning tools by students and teachers
Facilitate increased access to and wider usage of tools that have little or no barriers to entry
Partner with publishers, retailers, government agencies, funders, expert advisers in joined-up ways
Engage directly with examination boards to ensure maximum visibility and accessibility
