Meet the 2026 Cohort: Tangible (Leva Foundation)

Not every EdTech solution starts with a device or a data connection. Leva Foundation's Tangible Africa starts with a different question: what does a learning tool look like when it is built for the classrooms that actually exist across the continent?

The answer is offline games, designed so that teachers without programming experience can walk in and use them immediately.

The focus is on group problem-solving and classroom collaboration, not individual screen time. Accessible by design. Intentional from the start. Jackson Tshabalala, Event Manager at Leva Foundation, is part of the Mastercard Foundation EdTech Fellowship 2026.
