Our goal at atingi

Gender equality & inclusive
e-learning

Ensuring equal access to education is not just a matter of fairness, but a fundamental human right and catalyst for socio-economic progress.

Women, girls and other marginalized groups often face significant barriers to accessing quality education, which hinders their personal development, economic independence, and political participation.

At atingi we are convinced that digital learning holds the potential to provide such transformative learning opportunities to all, regardless of their gender or physical and cognitive abilities. Aligning with the German Feminist Development policy we seek to actively dismantle systemic gender inequalities, promote genuine inclusion and empower our learners to have a positive impact on their communities.

Therefore, we place great value on providing our learners with relevant learning materials that are designed in an inclusive, accessible and gender-transformative manner. To achieve this goal, we support our partners at every stage of their e-learning projects, be it by means of instructive courses on e-learning design, offline delivery solutions, or outreach support via our extensive network of partners.

Digital learning in low and no-connectivity contexts

atingi wants to make digital learning available to as many learners as possible, especially those in remote areas and underserved communities. To date, there is still a large number of people around the world without any or only irregular internet access. Therefore, we are tirelessly working on developing and piloting innovative and impactful offline learning solutions. The atingi platform and courses can be used offline via the atingi Andoid app for mobile. atingi also supports the usage of offline solutions and GIZ projects can seek advise at the sectoral department to implement the atingiBox, which enables them to offer atingi courses in low-connectivity and no-connectivity settings.
