Digital Learning: transforming education for students in rural Anosy

By Naomi Gammon and Clarisse Riou March 9, 2026

In rural Anosy, the Digital Learning component of Project Masoandro (“sun” in Malagasy) equips primary schools with innovative solar-powered educational technology. SEED partners with Jiro-VE to install solar panels on the roof of the school building, providing the energy needed to recharge tablets, projectors, speakers, and powerbanks. This ensures that digital learning can happen reliably, even without electricity.

During this initial visit, SEED’s team observed a critical need for education as well as water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) infrastructure, and was immediately struck by the unparalleled passion for education displayed by the community.
