Innovation in Education: Sandra’s EdLaunch Journey

Innovation often begins with a bold idea—and Sandra Muomba, a dynamic alumna from Teach For Zimbabwe’s 2nd cohort, is proving just how powerful one idea can be. As a finalist in the highly competitive EdLaunch initiative, Sandra is preparing to unveil her groundbreaking education solution during Pitch Day, taking place from May 28–30, 2025.

Sandra’s project is not just about integrating technology into classrooms—it’s about reimagining how learning happens, especially in under-resourced and marginalized communities. Her vision prioritizes inclusivity, accessibility, and relevance, ensuring that all learners—regardless of background or ability—can engage meaningfully with education.

At the heart of Sandra’s innovation is a learner-centered approach designed to cultivate critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration. Drawing on her classroom experience and community insight, she has developed a model that is deeply responsive to the needs of today’s students, while remaining adaptable to the realities of Zimbabwe’s educational landscape.

Pitch Day will bring together forward-thinking educators, funders, and innovators to explore solutions that could revolutionize education systems. Sandra will take the stage not only to present her idea but to amplify the voices of learners and teachers across the country who are calling for change.

Her journey is a powerful reminder that great ideas grow from real challenges, and that those closest to the issues are often best positioned to solve them. As she steps into this global spotlight, Sandra represents the next generation of educational leadership—bold, informed, and relentlessly hopeful.

We’re excited to support Sandra as she continues blazing a path for innovation in education. Stay tuned to follow her EdLaunch journey and witness how one fellow’s vision could help reshape learning for thousands of students.
