Mizizi Elimu Afrika (Mizizi) is an African-led organisation working to ensure all children and youth have the foundations they need to learn, relate and thrive. Mizizi’s work focuses on what matters most when foundations are formed; literacy, numeracy, life skills and values while strengthening the conditions that shape how learning is defined, supported, assessed, and resourced at scale. Mizizi works in collaboration with those closest to children and youth to shift mindsets, improve learning experiences, strengthen relationships, use evidence, and influence policy and resourcing so that those furthest behind are better served.
