Many of the issues related to successful EdTech interventions in the region center upon local capacity: both in terms of the skills and eReadiness of teachers and learners, and in relation to access to both devices and quality digital resources.

• The reports from the four project partner countries will be shared and general conclusions reached
• The session will outline the local situation, country by country, and seek to demonstrate how the project interventions can overcome obstacles in order to maximise the contribution that EdTech can make to both students’ achievement and the quality of learning in the region.
• An expert panel, comprising of leading industry experts, senior government leaders and TIESEA project staff will share their views and experiences and seek to generate some universal truths that underpin successful EdTech interventions globally.
