Episode 152-Unlocking Potential: VR Education for Africa’s Next Generation
Hello everyone, and welcome to another exciting episode of VR in Education, where we explore how virtual reality is transforming teaching and learning around the world.
In today’s episode, we’re honored to welcome Diana Njeri, Associate Director of the Africa VR Campus and Center, and Paul Waiyaki, CEO of the Africa VR Campus. Their work is a shining example of how purposeful technology can empower youth, especially young women in rural Kenya, to imagine—and build—a future beyond the limitations they’ve inherited.
From helping students create digital twins of mushroom farms to designing and hosting events in virtual worlds, Diana and Paul are not only teaching tech—they are unlocking potential. But as we’ll hear, their journey hasn’t been easy.
Today, we dive into what it takes to build an immersive learning ecosystem where none existed before, and how VR Africa is reimagining education—one VR headset, one learner, at a time.
