About Team4Tech
Team4Tech (www.team4tech.org) envisions a world where all learners have equitable access to quality education for improved socioeconomic mobility. We advance this mission by serving as an impact accelerator for community-based education NGOs, providing them with technical, pedagogical and operational support to help them build the skills their learners need for future employability. Over the past 14 years, we have supported more than 1,400 NGOs in 110 countries, improving learning opportunities and developing durable skills for 60M under-resourced learners.
Team4Tech’s accelerator programming contributes to UN SDG 4 – to ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all. Using evidence-based practices that promote education for employability, our accelerator programming, co-designed with community-based and education-focused NGOs operating in low-resource environments, includes:
- A robust, global online Community of Practice (CoP) to engage with free education and technology tools, workshops, certification courses, learning cohorts, and other resources;
- Facilitated regional hubs (in Africa, South Asia, Latin America & the Caribbean, and the USA & Canada) for localized knowledge sharing and collaboration;
- Access to skilled volunteers and educational resource partners to deliver pro bono capacity-building projects; and
- Access to funding, amplification, and coaching to further promote NGO sustainability.
The rapid evolution of generative AI brings a new opportunity for personalized adaptive learning at scale for learners in under-resourced contexts around the world. Team4Tech is building upon the technical and pedagogical foundations we have helped develop with NGOs globally to now develop their capacity to use AI to enhance their education programs. Over the past two years, we have become the leading AI accelerator for education NGOs in low income contexts by delivering 10 GenAI capacity building training cohorts for 80+ NGOs in more than 20 countries..
