Fundi Bots
Skills-based, practical science education in African Schools.
We provide hands-on, practical Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM)) education to children and youth in classrooms, communities and universities. Our students learn how to build robots, which radically improves school curriculum knowledge, classroom performance, provides hands-on vocational skills and career development and empowers students to be forces of change in their communities. The Fundi Bots learning model is practical, fun, engaging and puts students in a collaborative and exploratory learning environment that inspires them to think beyond simply passing classroom examinations. Fundi Bots can help improve learning outcomes for your science students inside and outside the classroom through a powerful and immersive learning experience. Under our School Outreach Program, we introduce students to robotics through presentations and short trainings.
