Why It Matters
Ednolabs is more than a project—it’s a movement. In places like Gomoa Brofo, ASANKA is proving to be a game-changer. By delivering offline digital content directly to classrooms, it removes traditional barriers like internet access and device costs, putting powerful learning tools into the hands of teachers and students who need them most.
“Technology will never replace great teachers, but technology in the hands of great teachers can be transformational.” – George Couros
This vision was echoed by Kafui Prebbie, CEO of TECHAiDE, during the closing session, inspiring attendees to embrace technology not as a substitute, but as a powerful ally in quality education.
