To engage global experts to empower African communities with high-quality, context-driven, and transformative solutions in education, health, technology, and policy.
Rwanda has developed world-class policies for digital transformation in education and health. However, TBG's research reveals a systematic gap between policy intent and ground-level implementation.
Only 0.9% of students with disabilities enrolled; ICT integration gaps persist despite national policy frameworks. High textbook costs hinder foundational learning access.
86% of Rwandans with mental health needs don't access care. AI screening tools with 88% accuracy remain underutilised despite policy frameworks.
Community health workers and teachers lack digital tools and AI-assisted decision support promised in national strategies.
