Josephine Marie Godwyll and Martin Bruce observed that children in rural areas in Ghana have restricted access to effective teaching and learning experiences and lack digital skills. Their ed-tech social enterprise Young At Heart Ghana provides children in primary schools with digital devices and education software that helps them learn in an engaging and practical way.

Their solar powered charging cart brings various digital devices in communities where there's no electricity. Their educational platform and gamified app uses African folklore stories to engage children in practical STEAM lessons and tasks, and has already been used by over 10,000 students.

Josephine and Martin envision a world where no child is left behind in this continuously evolving tech world because they are in a remote location.

Many children in Ghana perform poorly in school due to their inability to read. This denies them the opportunity to make meaning of their world, and negatively affects their future.

In a bid to spark a love for reading within their kids, Anyele and her husband Dr Yaw Perbi founded Perbi Cubs - a learning community using a combination of library services, in-school programs and a digital platform. The platform offers children between age 7 and 12 access to + 10 000 e-books, along with various exciting quizzes and rewards that motivate kids to read more. In addition, Perbi Cubs does webinars and videos with motivational people to help broaden kids' viewpoint. All content is curated around the school curriculum to help children learn in an easier way, read more for pleasure and perform better in all subjects.

In this episode, Anyele talks about their entrepreneurial journey - from a family affair to a growing EdTech company, reflects on the importance of reading for pleasure, and shares tips on how to move children from struggling to proficient readers.
