Education is the most powerful tool for reducing inequality and building the foundations for sustainable growth at a global level.

This comprehensive educational project is comprised of three central axes: training and mentoring teachers, providing schools with technology and using the web platform’s educational content. The project seeks to improve primary school children’s learning in maths, science, communication and life skills by taking advantage of technology. In addition, it empowers teachers to apply innovative teaching methodologies. This education and training project aims to benefit ten million children in Latin America, Africa and Asia over the next five years.
