Although many governments have latched onto e-learning platforms in the wake of COVID-19, a World Bank report indicates that they will not reach most students as only 36 percent of residents of lower-middle income countries, for example, have access to the internet, a statistic that cannot easily be improved in a time as this. 

Under this situation, the role of the private sector to education through Civil Society’s facilitation as support to government is urgent. 

With Tullow Oil plc funding, Youth Bridge Foundation is successfully running the ‘Tullow STEM Radio School’ in 6 coastal districts of the Western Region to bridge the education inequality gap amplified by COVID-19.

JoyNews Kenneth Awotwe Darko pays a visit to some communities In the Western Region benefitting from this initiative and has filed this report.
