Kenya Gets World Bank Funding to Expand Digital Literacy in Schools

Kenya's Information and Communications Technology Authority (ICTA) announced a World Bank-funded project to integrate digital literacy and the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) with gender-inclusive strategies. Consulting firms must demonstrate experience in developing AI curricula and have at least five years of registration in education-related fields. The project aims to embed digital literacy into the CBC, coinciding with the Ministry of Education's recent AI education initiative in over 10,000 public junior schools to prepare students for the digital age.
