Since I announced the establishment of the Age of Learning Foundation at the Education World Forum in London last year, we’ve made tremendous progress on our goal of reaching more underserved children and improving their education, having already provided our learning resources to millions of children in Central America, Africa, and South Asia in this short time.
To further build on this progress, I felt it was time to appoint a highly qualified Managing Director to lead our Foundation’s efforts. After an exhaustive search, I am very pleased to announce that we have found an exceptional candidate: Mubuso Zamchiya. He is a highly respected global education leader with more than two decades of experience in serving children and families. Mubuso earned his undergraduate degree with honors from the University of Bristol and a Master of Philosophy in Development Studies from Oxford University, where he was a Rhodes Scholar. You can find out more about his remarkable career in the press announcement linked to below.
Mubuso’s leadership and experience make him an outstanding person for this role. He has such enthusiasm for our learning solutions–ABCmouse, Adventure Academy, and My Math Academy, to name just a few–and the enormous potential of making them available to hundreds of millions of children around the world, at no cost to governments, teachers, and families.
It is the mission of the Foundation to distribute these valuable learning resources to underserved children on a global scale.
I am very excited to have Mubuso join the Age of Learning team to lead the Foundation’s efforts.
