“At FutureAzania, we believe that a nurturing, fun, and tactical learning environment is key to any educational process, to any child's long-term success. Our goal is to develop appropriate educational environments where students of all ages may thrive and grow emotionally, socially, and intellectually; emerging as innovators and pacesetters in South Africa and beyond. They are the new Africa.”
We’re a South African community that believes everyone deserves access to quality education. We contribute to creating the next generation of innovators and pacesetters in South Africa and beyond.
" Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world. "
— Nelson Mandela
In 2017, 17.4% of South Africa’s national budget was spent on education - 4.9% of the country’s total GDP. 65% of the students benefited from the no-fee school funding system. However, 75%-80% of public schools are deemed dysfunctional. Many of them don’t have physical structures, the educators don’t regularly show up for classes…
Through the power of education advocacy, FutureAzania strives to be a platform through which South Africa can bridge a gap in knowledge, designs, and resources for its children. Azania, for us in South Africa, is a movement, one that can benefit all by empowering children and youth through greater access to the educational tools they need to enrich themselves and their society. This movement belongs to all of us.
They are the new Africa.
FutureAzania wants to stimulate interest in and practical application of necessary and crucial skills in the fields of science, technology, engineering, math, and art and design (STEAM), in children and youth starting from an early age. We want to encourage critical thinking, collaboration, and problem-solving skills for Africa-specific issues and challenges, and encourage innovation through the use of technology and design.
" The beautiful thing about learning is that no one can take it away from you,"
