Projects

All of our projects are focused on enhancing (inclusive) deaf education in the Global South. We use a train-the-trainer approach, enabling local trainers and teachers to address the specific needs of learners with hearing loss. Below you find examples of our current and completed projects.

Kenya: Scaling Inclusive Early Learning for Deaf Children

In September 2024, we started an applied research project as partners in a consortium with Busara Center for Behavioral Economics and eKitabu, Kenya. The project focuses on early childhood care and education and aims to research and strenghten language development and school readiness among young deaf children.

Tanzania: Multiplying Learning Opportunities for Tanzanian Teachers

In early 2025, Kentalis International Foundation launched a new collaboration with OSNET to improve the quality of education for deaf and hard-of-hearing learners in Tanzania. This effort focuses not only on learners in special schools, but also on the growing number of deaf students in mainstream classrooms.
