The Learning Crisis in Africa

#LearningCannotWait

Africa has a learning crisis. More specifically, the divide between what we learn in school (from early days) and the practical skills, attitudes, technical know-how and knowledge that our people and our economies need to be productive and competitive.
The crisis goes much deeper for areas with little or no access to high quality tutors and learning infrastructure. This crisis has existed for decades and has now hit home with attendant consequences:● Barriers to employment● Lack of capacity for youths to start and sustain businesses.● Lowered earning potential later in life● Poverty and its attendant consequences● Long-term weak economic productivity at the national level. We knew we had to do something to support the global efforts and thus, Youtherium was born. Powered by Sapphital.

We built Youtherium to become the most authentic and authoritative platform that will address the Gaps in Education, Skills and Knowledge Acquisition in Africa. We knew there was a crisis but it hit us in 2020 during the COVID Pandemic when parents and students were ultimately stranded at home. So in 2021, we started thinking and designing the entire framework for addressing the Educational Crisis in a way that is sustainable, impactful and scalable. So we concluded - African Youths need three things as far as capacity building is concerned:

Good Education

A Good Education across all levels from elementary all the way to higher education where possible.

Practical Skills

A set of Practical Skills to be able to generate productive activities and utilize one’s head, heart and hands to create wealth.

Soft Skills

Continuous improvements in Soft Skills to maximize one’s full potentials and perform at all levels.

Youtherium was born to address both 2 and 3 above, thereby complementing the Education from our schools

VISION

To be the leading digital learning platform with the most influence on African Youths.

MISSION

To create an easily accessible and influential platform with the powers of education, entertainment, and technology to empower the youths for life.
