Education for the underprivileged children is about so much more than just learning to read and write.
Children in Nigeria, Kenya, Tanzania and other countries in the Global South need schools where learning becomes a passion, where students engage in hands-on projects, explore new ideas and collaborate with peers to solve real-world problems. This is at the heart of what WhyBlueSky does.
with teachers to bring learning to life, especially in science classes. We teach them how to spark children’s curiosity by engaging them in educational games and encourage critical thinking through simple experiments.
We work
Our goal
We imagine
transforming schools — often lacking electricity and furnished with only old tables — into vibrant learning centers where students can prepare for the future. We believe that with the WhyBlueSky model, this change is possible, even in the most neglected corners of the world.
is to implement an activity-based learning model that develops 21st century skills in public and affordable private schools across Nigeria and other Sub-Saharan countries . We believe that every child deserves at least one lesson per week that inspires, motivates and builds confidence, and that is exactly what we aim to achieve.
Founded to transform education in Africa, we focus on activity-based learning. Our mission is to equip students with essential skills for the 21st century. Our dedicated team works tirelessly to achieve groundbreaking results, paving the way for a promising future. Through education, we also aim to address the root causes of irregular migration by empowering young people with knowledge, skills, and alternatives.

MOBILE ACADEMY FOR TEACHERS
is a training program for teachers of primary, junior, and senior secondary schools. Teachers participate in weekly, one-hour training sessions held at their school. They receive instructions via their phones and complete training tasks, documenting them with photos, audio, and video recordings. During these training sessions, they learn the activity-based learning method and 21st-century skills development. They then conduct monitored lessons independently, after which they receive feedback from WhyBlueSky facilitators. The program includes 6 one-hour training sessions and 6 monitored lessons. The program consists of 2 sessions, each lasting 3 hours.
THE LEADERS OF CHANGE
This program is designed for facilitators, head teachers, and school-based training coordinators. Through live workshops, participants learn the foundations of Activity-Based Learning and how to foster 21st-century skills in their schools. They also gain practical tools to organize and lead teacher training sessions within their own school communities — becoming true agents of change.
ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION FOR THE FUTURE
We create engaging lesson plans that raise awareness about climate change, pollution, and environmental protection. Our programs help students understand the impact of human activity on the planet and inspire them to take action in their communities. We also support students in developing their own environmental projects, encouraging local solutions to global challenges.
