We had a wonderful engagement with Giabbanelli, Senior Programme Officer at the Gates Foundation, to explore potential areas of collaboration and shared opportunities in advancing inclusive education and digital accessibility.

During the meeting, he appreciated the work we are doing through our BlindClassroom initiative, which uses assistive technology to create more accessible learning opportunities for learners with visual impairments. We look forward to the possibilities that meaningful collaboration can unlock in creating a more inclusive future.

There’s something special about watching our learners become completely immersed in a learning session. With their headphones on, hands on the keyboard, and attention fully on the lesson, these learners are not just being introduced to technology, they are actively exploring it, learning through it, and enjoying the experience.

Every interaction with BlindClassroom is helping them become more familiar with technology, build confidence, and take greater ownership of their learning.

At Makande Resource Centre in Chikwawa, we are witnessing what becomes possible when learners with visual impairments have access to digital learning tools designed with their needs in mind like the Blindclassroom system.

From being named the Overall Winner at the 2025 Innovation Jam, held during the 2025 ICT Association of Malawi (ICTAM) Annual General Meeting and Innovation Awards, to taking the BlindClassroom journey to TiCon Africa 2026 in Zambia.🇿🇲

Our CEO, Staff Nyoni, had the opportunity to showcase BlindClassroom and share our work in making digital learning more accessible and inclusive for learners with visual impairments.

It was a meaningful opportunity to share our journey, connect with innovators from across the region, and see how ideas can grow beyond borders.

A big thank you to ICT Association Of Malawi for the Award and to National Bank of Malawi for sponsoring our participation and supporting this journey.

A new academic year, a new learning experience at Makande Resource Centre for the Blind. We recently deployed BlindClassroom at the centre, and the students have now started using it as part of their learning.

Seeing them interact with the system for the first time has been really special. They’re exploring, learning, asking questions, and enjoying the experience as they get familiar with the technology.

For us, this is what makes the work meaningful. It’s one thing to develop and deploy a solution, but seeing it become part of a learner’s everyday experience is where the real impact begins. And at Makande, the journey has just begun.

As students at Malingunde Resource Center begin a new academic year, they have also started using the BlindClassroom system to support their learning.

BlindClassroom is designed to make digital learning more accessible for learners with visual impairments, giving them an opportunity to learn, explore, and engage with educational content more independently.

Seeing the learners begin using the system is a reminder of why inclusive technology matters. Every learner deserves accessories to education and the tools they need to reach their full potential. Here is to a new academic year filled with learning, growth, and new possibilities

As students return to school in their new academic year, we are excited to see learners at St Joseph’s, Dedza already back to using the Blindclassroom system in their learning.

Through BlindClassroom, we are working to make quality, inclusive education more accessible to learners who are visually impaired,giving them the tools and support they need to learn, explore and grow with confidence. This is more than technology. It’s about creating opportunities, and helping every learner have a fair chance to succeed.

As we continue this journey, we look forward to reaching and supporting even more learners across Malawi and beyond.

In a world where technology is rapidly shaping how we learn, work, and create opportunities, empowering young people to participate in the digital economy is more important than ever.

We are proud to share that our CEO, Staff Nyoni was one of the panelists during a breakout session at the National Youth Summit 2026, hosted by the

The session, themed “From Digital Divide to Digital Dividend – Reflecting on Technology, Innovation, and Tech Entrepreneurship for Youth,” brought together meaningful conversations around how young people can use technology and innovation to create opportunities, solve problems, and build sustainable businesses and become great and successful entrepreneurs.

It was a powerful conversation on bridging the digital divide and turning access to technology into meaningful opportunities for Malawi’s youth.

While many students are enjoying their break, students at St. Joseph’s School for the Blind are still showing up for lessons through BlindClassroom.

Their determination reminds us that a holiday may pause the school calendar, but it cannot pause the desire to learn. Their resilience, curiosity, and hunger for knowledge are truly inspiring.

As part of the Lilongwe Aspire Alumni Exchange 2026 that took place on the 8th of August, our CEO, Staff Nyoni, facilitated a Design for Impact Workshop under the theme: “Co-creating Innovative Solutions for Inclusive Economic Resilience in Malawi.”

During the session, Staff took participants through the process of turning everyday challenges within their communities into opportunities for innovation and impact.
He explored how impactful ideas can emerge from our immediate environment by paying attention to the problems people experience, understanding the thinking behind those challenges, and what solutions can we come up with.

The session then moved from conversation to action. He facilitated brainstorming activities, grouping participants into thematic areas based on the problems they identified. Each group was challenged to think creatively and develop practical, innovative ideas that could respond to those challenges.

The workshop demonstrated an important principle we strongly believe in at Access Ability Africa: innovation does not always begin with having a big idea. Sometimes, it begins with noticing a problem and choosing to do something about it. By encouraging young people to look at their communities through a problem solving lens, the session created space for ideas that can contribute to a more inclusive, resilient and innovative Malawi.
