Bag that Builds Education for Sustainable Development (ESD)

The Bag that Builds ESD programme is rooted in behavioural economics and driven by schooling-related incentives. It addresses critical challenges in the public education system, particularly the alarming literacy gap, where over 80% of Grade 4 learners struggle to read for meaning. By focusing on Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics and the Arts (e-STEMA), the initiative cultivates proactive, entrepreneurial mindset among learners, equipping them with relevant skills for the future job market.
