SPEECH SPARK
Empowering teachers and educators in Togo by utilizing SEL.
Supporting education with SEL (Social Emotional Learning).
At Speech Spark, our mission is to address the significant educational challenges faced by students in Togo, particularly in rural areas. Speech Spark is committed to expanding educational efforts across Togo, improving educational outcomes, reducing dropout rates, and ensuring that every child—especially girls—has the opportunity to succeed.
Materials for Learning
Many of our students don’t have access to adequate learning materials, so teachers have to resort to other measures like using chalk on the ground to demonstrate their lessons. With a donation from you, you can help provide students with the proper materials, uniforms, and schools supplies necessary for a year of learning.
Continuing Education for Teachers
We provide workshops, and ongoing expert support in SEL for educators with the theory that when teachers possess effective SEL strategies, they will create a safe and supportive classroom environment that promotes positive relationships, increased student engagement, and improved academic performance.
Support for Communities
In West Africa, 62.29% of the Togo population lives in rural areas (togo.opendataforafrica.org), with a poverty headcount ratio of $2.15 per day (data.worldbank.org). With more educational support in place, young people will have a chance earning a college degree and therefore improving their communities in the long run. If you help one person, you help a village.
“Without urgent action to reduce learning poverty, we are confronted with a potential catastrophe in learning and human capital.”
