We are building an IT lab for a disabled school in the country's second city, Blantyre. The lab will be the first of its kind in the township of Bangwe. The school is run by brother and sister Rex and Fatima Salima, who are both disabled themselves. The school promotes disabled young people’s right to education and aims to facilitate inclusion in all aspects of life.
Disabled children and young adults struggle in Malawi to even gain a formal education, digital facilities are scant and schools that do have such facilities are largely inaccessible to people with disabilities.
Digital skills are in high demand and a digital education can provide disabled people with valuable skills and knowledge that can help empower them to secure better paid jobs or to start their own businesses.
