A Challenge to the Sector for an Evidence-Driven Future

In this thought leadership piece, I contributed both strategic messaging and creative production to launch a call to action for the EdTech sector, what we famously know as the five questions we are obsessed with asking and seeking answers for.

A Story from Northern Ghana

This storytelling project brought to light the lived experiences of communities, teachers, and learners in Northern Ghana. Featuring Wunni Sabo, a parent who had been influenced by nudge messages to encourage his daughter to pursue education, I crafted the narrative, supported by on-the-ground visuals, translation, and a tone alignment that honored local voices while aligning with EdTech Hub’s broader communications strategy. This piece exemplifies my ability to weave evidence and emotion into compelling human stories.
