Schools2030

🤩 Last week Schools2030 Kenya participated in the Teachers' Convening conference, in Taita Taveta County, hosted by Elimu Fanaka Initiative — a non-profit organisation working with rural public primary schools in Kenya to improve access to quality education and create sustainable communities! 🌏 The conference was an opportunity for our teachers to showcase and share tested classroom innovations and their experiences with the Schools2030 Human-Centred Design process with a wider network, enhancing cross-learning with education partners in Kenya! 👏 #TC2024, Aga Khan Foundation East Africa, Halima Shaaban

🚶♂️🏞️ How can schools in remote, migratory communities tackle chronic absenteeism? In the remote Ishkoman Valley of Gilgit Baltistan, Pakistan, teacher Afzal Khan and his team at Government Primary School Tushkin are finding innovative answers. 💡With support from Schools2030 Pakistan, they adopted a holistic, human-centred design approach to transform education for nomadic families. Absenteeism, driven by seasonal migrations and socioeconomic struggles, once left more than half of the students absent daily. But through deep community engagement, empathetic strategies, and data-driven solutions, Afzal and his team have transformed both student and parental engagement at the school. 👏 Read the full story 👉 https://lnkd.in/ecBE8UQh

👏 🇵🇹 Progressing Human-Centred Design (HCD) in Portugal! At Schools2030, we believe in the power of HCD to drive meaningful change in education. As part of our Asses, Innovate, and Showcase model, Schools2030 Portugal, together with their learning partner, the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences of the University of Porto, have been working closely with 15 school groups, involving 960 children and young people and 75 educators. 👩🏫 The recent HCD sessions in Portugal shared results from assessing holistic learning across different age groups (5, 10, and 15 years). These insights are key to understanding how well students are developing crucial skills like empathy, problem-solving, positive relationships, and critical thinking. Armed with this data, educators are now better equipped to refine their approaches, ensuring that learning translates into practical life skills that meet the real-world needs of students! 🤩 Fundação Aga Khan, Universidade do Porto
