Summary
With a team of passionate innovators we use Educational Technology to drive positive change and give equal access to quality education.Detailed description
MoMo Education by Sister Schools Foundation offers schools a two-year digital educational exchange program for pupils in the age groups 10-12, 13-15 and 16-18 years between schools on opposite sides of the wealth balance.
By exchanging information, knowledge and experiences between pupils of a different socio-economic and cultural background, pupils get a broader perspective on reality and a better grip on their environment. The sister relationship between the schools is facilitated through the Digital Educational Exchange Platform (DEEP). There are exchange moments with the teachers prior to each lesson block with 3 lesson blocks of 6 weeks per year.
Core product MoMo Education; an international educational exchange program aimed at intercultural collaboration between pupils with a different socio-economic and cultural background, for sustainable development.
