The Learning Passport

A new solution designed to close the learning poverty gap, the Learning Passport is an Online, Mobile, and Offline tech platform enabling high quality, flexible learning

About Us

Our Mission 

Enable continuous access to education for children, youth, and teachers around the world and drive improved learning outcomes through high-quality, portable education to support their entry into other education or opportunity pathways, including formal education

53 percent of children

in low-and-middle income countries experience Learning Poverty -- this means, they cannot read and understand a simple story by the time they finish primary school

World Bank

127 million children and young people

living in crisis-affected countries were out of primary & secondary school in 2019 -- this is equivalent to almost half the global out-of-school population

1.3 billion children 

aged 3 to 17 years old mostly from low-income countries and rural regions do not have internet connection at home -- this digital divide is perpetuating inequalities

COVID-19 Response

The Learning Passport platform has undergone rapid expansion to facilitate country-level curriculum for children and youth whose schools have been forced to close due to COVID-19. The platform will also provide key resources to teachers and educators.
