Investing in Learners for Dominica ​

Dominica was devastated by Hurricane Maria. Rebuilding is under way.
​Learning with information technology is part of the Commonwealth of Dominica's long-term vision. As in all classrooms, teachers and students know the importance of connecting people and connecting with information in this modern age.
Hurricane Maria has devastated education in the country. Students in the Commonwealth of Dominica deserve today’s education – today!

The Challenge
​"Eden is Broken"
(Prime Minister Skerrit, addressing the United Nations General Assembly, Sept. 23/17)
September 19th, 2017, the scourge of Hurricane Maria made landfall on the Commonwealth of Dominica. The effect was devastating. With winds in excess of 280 km/h, Maria demonstrated the power of the tenth-most intense Atlantic hurricane on record. The impact on the island, the people, and the education system is significant. Ninety percent of all housing is moderately damaged to fully destroyed and school infrastructure has suffered parallel damage.

Perhaps less here.
