Bernd Roggendorf and his team at EIDU are driven by the strong belief that every child in the world deserves equal opportunity, including the 800 million children who live on $2 or less per day and who, despite going to school, often lack fundamental skills like reading, writing, and math.
Therefore EIDU is working on a learning platform which will enable children to teach themselves those and many other fundamental skills. The platform is optimized to work on the cheapest smartphones which will be omnipresent within a few years time. It is being developed and tested together with 3,000 preschool children and their parents and teachers in an African slum.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
