The ElimuPi story
from idea to reality
The ElimuPi is the answer to the desire of schools in Kenia and Tanzania to bring digital education to the classroom. Together we envisioned an accessible digital content source without relying on existing infrastructure. The ElimuPi was born.
The ElimuPi is a portable server based on a Raspberry Pi device containing huge educational content libraries and e-learning. Elimu means education in Kiswahili, and Pi stems from our Raspberry Pi hardware.
The first ElimuPi was introduced at a secondary school in Kenya in 2020. Currently, more than hundred schools in Tanzania and Kenya use the device to enrich their education, and we are expanding monthly with new primary and secondary schools.
