22 SEP 2020 · One of the key components in managing the spread of COVID-19 has been limiting physical interactions. At the onset of the pandemic, establishments including businesses and schools were promptly shut down and evacuated in order to curb the spread of the virus. As cases continue to rise with no approved treatment or vaccine, communities have struggled to figure out the best strategy to re-open schools. With the academic year disrupted for students at all ages, we dissect the measures taken in Kenya, Tanzania and Zimbabwe in primary and secondary education. We also explore the discrepancies between access to resources within the class divide and how the different governments of the respective countries have responded to the education needs. In this episode, we interviewed Farai Munjoma and Vanessa Chilunda.
Farai is a Zimbabwean education entrepreneur at Shasha Network.He is an African Leadership Academy, African Leadership University alumnus. Farai has also previously been an Anzisha Fellow.
Vanessa Chilunda is a PhD Student at Albert Einstein College of Medicine.
