Removing barriers of education for the marginalized
Education has over the years proven to be a source of enlightenment and also help people to
advance their status. However there are several factors that hinder most people especially
those in rural areas, refugees etc to have access to it which includes,
Lack of educational facilities
Financial constraints.
Inadequate staffs
Long distance to the nearby school.
Lack of effective supervision for effective learning
OUR SOLUTION.
DOLPHIN.
Our Solution.
. Creating an educational portal which students can access through a special tablet.
These tablets would be pre-installed with educational contents depending on the user's level of
education and country of residence.
Setting up of community based center's especially in rural areas to enable proper supervision of
students.
The use of solar energy in order to operate in areas without electricity.
The use of star link satellites to provide internet for those in rural areas or areas which lack
telecommunication coverage to facilitate teaching and learning.
We believe these solutions above would help curb the educational problems if not eliminate
them completely.
Our target population is mainly the marginalized people in the society such as refugees, the disabled, people living remote areas among others. However we are going start by implementing our solution in rural areas in the Upper West region of Ghana and the proceed to other areas
I live and school in the University of Business and Integrated Development studies in Wa which is in the Upper West region of Ghana and also very close to these areas. Also due our experience from TTFPP, a program in our school curriculum which helps to equip students to work and understand and solve problems in the rural areas, I believe that my team and I are in the best position to deliver this solution
