2018 NL4018 PJ3498 Can't Wait to Learn Sudan Phase 3

An estimated three million children are out of school in Sudan, around one-third of the school age population. Can’t Wait to Learn seeks to address the challenge of access to quality education, through its innovative education technology programme. CWTL can be implemented in remote areas without access to electricity, which enables the programme to provide education for out of school children. The Can't Wait to learn literacy study in Sudan (Kassala and Sinnar States) is being locally implemented by Babiker Badri Associatoin for Women's studies (BBSAWS) in terms of programme coordination, contribution to the research agenda development, teacher professional development and liaising with the Ministry of Education. CWTL in Sudan seeks to provide out of school children with access to basic literacy and numeracy through the CWTL game. The game is based on the Sudanese curriculum and has been developed in collaboration with the Ministry of Education. The literacy study is implemented in 8 villages in Kassala state and 4 villages in Sinnar state with approximately 30 students in each class. It is the ambition that the literacy study will inform and facilitate the upcoming scale up phase of CWTL in Sudan
