The problem
AI tools are entering classrooms faster than teachers are prepared
If teachers are not first in the design room, decades of indigenous wisdom risk being lost. TichaAfrica ensures teachers lead the transition.
The solution — led by teachers
- Teacher-led design. Every module starts with teacher insight.
- Mobile-first delivery. Simple, low-bandwidth learning for every phone.
- Free core training. Open access to foundational resources.
- Policy-aligned. Mapped to UNESCO AI CFT and AU Continental AI Strategy.
What founding teachers gain
- Shape the continent’s first teacher co-created AI curriculum
- Earn a Founding Teacher digital badge and certificate
- Early access to tools, templates and micro-courses
- Be part of research and policy conversations with partners
