Empowering Minds, Transforming Lives in the Global South.Welcome to the heart of TEFA’s commitment – the “Education for All” project. At TEFA, we believe that education is the cornerstone of empowerment and the key to breaking the chains of poverty. Our mission is to make quality education accessible to every child in the Global South, ensuring that no one is left behind.

Our Vision

In a world where knowledge knows no boundaries, “Education for All” envisions a future where every child, regardless of their socio-economic background or geographical location, has access to a quality education. We aspire to be the catalyst for positive change by fostering learning environments that nurture curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking.

Key Objectives

Access to Quality Education: We strive to remove barriers that hinder access to education. This includes addressing infrastructure gaps, providing learning materials, and ensuring the availability of skilled educators.

Community Engagement

Education is a community effort. We actively engage with local communities, parents, and educators to create a collaborative approach that understands and addresses the unique challenges each community faces.

Technology Integration

Harnessing the power of technology, we aim to bring modern educational resources to underserved areas. This includes digital learning tools, online courses, and connectivity solutions that bridge the digital divide.

Sustainability: Our projects are designed with sustainability in mind. By investing in community-driven initiatives, local capacity building, and long-term partnerships, we ensure that the impact of education resonates for generations.

Where We Work

“Education for All” is not confined by borders. We work tirelessly in the Global South, collaborating with local organizations, governments, and communities to create lasting change. Our current focus areas include [List countries or regions], and our goal is to expand our reach to [mention future target areas].

With the new Arduino-Yuns, a new family of microcontrollers has been introduced to the market. The Arduino controllers which are very popular worldwide have been expanded with new libraries and devices that give the Arduino family its network capability. The manufacturers promise a wealth of possibilities for IoT applications based on Arduino.

The subject of this thesis is the creation of a concept for WebApp development for IoT process visualization and control based on Arduino-Yuns.

The concept is based on the Arduino Yun and is used to develop use cases and web techniques that allow remote or wireless access to the Arduino-Yun. Using a web application, the Arduino-Yun can be used to control actuators connected to the Arduino Yun and to read data from sensors that are also connected to the Arduino Yun.

Objective: Establishment of a rural center to promote digitization and innovation
Place: West Cameroon
Target group: Students from technical colleges in the subregion

Measures: During realization of the project the focus will be on the optimization of design thinking as well as on lean and agile. systematized design methods. in rural areas and from this study  The students will develop and build technical solutions (prototype) that will make life easier in rural areas of Cameroon.

Sustainability Strategy: The prototypes will be exhibited in the country’s administrations, in other institutions,in public facilities and in technical innovation competitions around the world.

Partner: Brücke e.V. Team@Solution

Goal: Global partnerships to reduce plastic waste

measures: Promote sustainable projects in waste management. Sensitization of every age group about waste management through storytelling projects in the form of picture books or apps intended to reach and raise awareness amongst school children near the coast, where the problem is most obvious.

Sustainability Strategy: Development, provision and scaling of solutions for the reduction, reuse and recycling of plastic waste.

Summary of the project

“SHARE A SMILE” is a water solidarity project implemented by the Association pour l’Egalité et le Bien-Etre (ASEBE) in the locality of Ongot, a village in the commune of Mbankomo, located in the Central Cameroon Region, Mefou and Akono Department.

In order to guarantee access to water and sanitation for all and to ensure sustainable management of water resources, which is the 6th Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) of the United NationThe project aimed to “raise awareness on good hygiene and sanitation practices”.

The “SHARE A SMILE” project was therefore based on three main activities: a training seminar, a vast awareness campaign on good hygiene and sanitation practices in the locality of Ongot and a digital awareness campaign on good hygiene and sanitation practices.

THE TRAINING SEMINAR
For the first phase of the “SHARE A SMILE” project, the Association pour l’Egalité et le Bien-Etre (ASEBE) organised a four-day training seminar from 9 to 12 March 2021 on specific themes such as the management of humanitarian projects (days 1 and 2), the principles and fundamentals of community health (day 3) and the treatment and management of waste and contaminated water (day 4). This very important seminar allowed the members of the Association for Equality and Well-being (ASEBE) and the participants to come out with the quintessence of these themes in order to be able to carry out the vast awareness campaign for the populations of ONGOT and on all digital platforms. This was without counting on the experience and skills of the three (03) session facilitators (experts) who ultimately met the expectations of the participants by providing them with the necessary bases.

THE VAST AWARENESS CAMPAIGN ON GOOD HYGIENE AND SANITATION PRACTICES IN THE LOCALITY OF ONGOT
As part of the implementation of “SHARE A SMILE“, a vast awareness campaign was organised by the Association for Equality and Well-being (ASEBE). It was held in the locality of ONGOT with the aim of sensitising the pupils of the Modern High School of ONGOT as well as the populations of this locality on good practices in hygiene and salubrity. It lasted for 2 days (23 and 24 March 2021). Day 1 was devoted to sensitising the pupils of the Lycée Moderne d’ONGOT on good hygiene and sanitation practices. Thus, going from class to class (6ème to Terminale), the Principal of the school and his staff allowed the project team (composed of 12 people including the President of the Association for Equality and Well-being (ASEBE), its members and the technical team) to be deployed within the school campus. The objective of the deployment was to sensitise the students of the Lycée on good hygiene and sanitation practices and the importance of personally and permanently ensuring that these practices are respected both at school and at home.

THE DIGITAL AWARENESS CAMPAIGN ON GOOD HYGIENE AND SANITATION PRACTICES
The digital awareness campaign is the key to the success of the SHARE A SMILE project.  It consisted of promoting the message conveyed by the project team on all digital platforms concerning good hygiene and sanitation practices. Because it is important to reach as many people as possible, digital technology is a universal tool that allows a message to be passed on easily and safely across borders. The project team understood this and implemented a strong digital communication through its official pages (ASEBE Facebook page, Twitter, WhatsApp group, LinkedIn account, Facebook group of International cooperation, ASEBE YouTube Channel, radio, internet and ASEBE web page) as well as those of its members and all participants adhering to the promotion of good hygiene and sanitation practices. The campaign reached nearly 35,000 people. This are the link of activities published in specialized journals on the internet.
