Orange Foundation Liberia

Call for Application to Partner with Orange Foundation on its Wologizi Computer Lab Initiative

Background

Orange Foundation Liberia Country Office was established in Liberia in 2021 as the Humanitarian Arm of Orange Liberia GSM.

As part of Orange Foundation roadmap for “Engage 2025”, the Foundation is focused on a series of digital inclusion projects, namely:

  • Providing access to technology for Universities through the Wologizi Computer Lab Initiative across Liberia with specialization in distance education
  • Providing access to teaching and learning materials using technology for primary school-going children through the Digital Schools initiative for underprivileged schools in Montserrado, Margibi, Grand Bassa, and Bomi Counties.
  • Promoting innovation among semi-illiterate and literate women in Bong and Grand Bassa Counties through the Women’s Digital Centers Initiative where peace hut women are being empowered and thought literacy, numeracy, and small business skills using technologies.

By the end of December 2022, Orange Foundation is expected to expand its Wologizi Computer Lab Initiative across Liberia, and the Wologizi initiative has requested for computer labs to be built in Liberia as part of our “Digital Inclusion” intervention. Currently, we have three (3) computer labs with specialization in distance education in Monrovia at AME University, Bomi at AME Zion University and Bong at Cuttington University.

Purpose
