STEM Build Malawi

Storyline

The STEM Build Malawi project was funded through a crowdfunding campaign led by Katy Toms and Kelly Jeffery and supported by Gemma Glover and Hannah Shenton working with Orbis Expeditions and CISER, based in Malawi. It included engineers from across the UK, South Africa and the Asia Pacific Region, as well as two NHS nurses. Rainbow Hope Secondary School was opened in 2017 and educates girls and boys from the surrounding community, with just over 120 students attending. The new 'Kamkwamba Building' supports the schools' aspirations to enhance their science programme for their students and provide an IT facility for the students and other higher education learning.
