A bold milestone for digital learning in Kenya’s frontier counties: Mr. @iofarah , the CEO of Frontier Counties Development Council, together with Ms. Wariara Waireri, Africa Partnerships and Ecosystem Lead at @RaspberryPi_org , has launched the @Ontumeducation Offline Digital Learning Kits and County ICT Repair & Maintenance Hubs at @weston_hotel. These transformative initiatives will extend quality digital learning to low-connectivity areas and revive dormant ICT infrastructure in schools—strengthening a more resilient, inclusive, and future-ready education system across ASAL counties. “The best EdTech doesn’t need the internet—it makes the absence of it irrelevant,” noted Ammar Mahmoud, Ontum Product Lead, capturing the spirit of a truly disruptive shift in learning access.

Three years ago, the vision was simple but powerful: ensure that learners in Kenya’s frontier counties are not left behind in the digital revolution. Today, that vision continues to take shape. As we conclude a transformative three-day Community Trainers Workshop at @weston_hotel , Nairobi, @FCDCKenya joined Kenya Connect and other partners implementing the @RaspberryPi_org Computing Curriculum in Machakos County in reaffirming a shared commitment to strengthening computing education across the ASAL region. The workshop brought together County Raspberry Pi Foundation Coordinators and Ministry of Education Quality Assurance & Standards Officers from all ten FCDC member counties, alongside partners and education stakeholders, in a collaborative effort to deepen digital learning, strengthen ICT integration, and improve the quality of computing education in schools. This gathering marks a significant milestone in the third year of the Advancing Computing Skills Project, building on two years of meaningful progress in transforming classroom learning experiences through technology. This year’s focus has centred on sustainability, improving training quality, and strengthening long-term support systems for both teachers and learners. The sessions were practical, immersive, and deeply engaging — allowing participants to experience learning from the learner’s perspective while exploring learner-centred pedagogy, curriculum design, lesson progression, culturally responsive teaching approaches, and effective facilitation methods that ensure consistency and relevance across counties. A major highlight of the workshop has been strengthening the capacity of county trainers themselves — sharpening facilitation skills, refining delivery approaches, improving training materials, and building confidence through peer practice, reflection, and feedback. The emphasis throughout has been on clarity, engagement, pacing, and impactful communication within teacher training environments. As the workshop comes to a close, we are equally excited for the launch of the first Offline Ontum Kulbox Technology and the Localised Rehabilitation of Digital Learning Tablets initiative. Through the introduction of the @Ontumeducation Offline Digital Model and Ontum Box Kits, schools facing connectivity and infrastructure challenges will now have greater access to uninterrupted, inclusive, and resilient digital learning opportunities. This moment is more than a workshop conclusion; it is a reflection of what strong partnerships can achieve in advancing equitable education for every learner, regardless of geography. Together with @RaspberryPi_org , @UNICEFKenya , Kenya Connect, @Ontumeducation , County Governments, and the @EduMinKenya , @FCDCKenya remains committed to scaling impactful, sustainable, and future-ready computing education across Kenya’s frontier counties. #DigitalLearning #ComputingEducation #ASAL #ICT4Education #DigitalSkills #RaspberryPiFoundation #UNICEFKenya #KenyaConnect #OntumEducation #FCDC #EdTech #FutureOfLearning
