Instant Network Schools
Working with UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency to bring digital education to refugee communities.
Every child has the right to a quality education.
Instant Network Schools was set up in 2013 by Vodafone Foundation and UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, to give young refugees, host communities and their teachers access to digital learning content and the internet, improving the quality of education in some of the most marginalised communities in Africa.
There are 118 Instant Network Schools currently operating across 6 countries: Kenya, Tanzania, the Democratic Republic of Congo, South Sudan, Mozambique and Egypt.
To date, the programme has benefited over 274,288 students and 4,705 teachers ensuring that refugees and children from the communities that host them have access to accredited, quality, and relevant learning opportunities.
