40K PLUS addresses the lack of access to quality education (as set out in UNSDG 4) in restricted or low-resource environments that have limited access to electricity, internet and trained teachers. The project currently targets India and Cambodia. Our flagship program delivered through the 40K PLUS technology platform recognizes that without knowledge of basic English, these communities are severely limited in their access to opportunities, higher education and information.
We have designed a technology platform that can be used to curate and deliver educational material through an individualized, offline learning pathway on low-cost android devices. Currently, the platform is being used to deliver our flagship English language program for first-generation English learners.
