“Elimu-Soko – meaning “education market” – is an Afro-centric initiative dedicated to building resilient, government-led education systems across Africa.
Elimu-Soko works with African governments and education innovators to bridge the gap between small-scale successful interventions and the national systems that can sustain them. By aligning with government priorities, Elimu-Soko ensures that proven innovations are piloted, monitored, and scaled within public education systems — creating a sustainable model for long-term improvement in learning outcomes.
Through partnerships with ministries of education, innovators, and funders, Elimu-Soko helps countries design and deliver cost-effective, results-based education programs that quality educational outcomes at scale. Its data-driven model has already demonstrated success in Rwanda and Zanzibar, improving literacy and numeracy rates within six months and supporting governments to embed these solutions into national strategies.
Elimu-Soko’s vision is to see government-led, resilient education systems across Africa — systems that empower educators, strengthen schools, and ensure that every child receives a quality education.”
