Teach East Africa WEEK

February 1 - 9, 2024

East Africa is home to over 335 Million people,  who speak thousands of languages, and whose vast and interconnected lives & histories over millennia have 

shaped the world


We invite teachers  and administrators to commit to teaching about East Africa throughout the week of February 1-9, 2024

It's easy and there are multiple ways to participate

Read a book, listen to East African music, watch a video, 

or teach a full lesson. 

Participating teachers will receive a free book of their choice.

... & send us your teaching stories afterwards.
