We had the pleasure of hosting a fireside chat with one of the most influential voices of science in Tanzania and the world. Dr Esther Mwaikambo, the president of the Tanzania Academy of Sciences, first female doctor in TZ, first Paediatrician and a number of many firsts 2/3

Developing a comprehensive digital curriculum of our @JengaHub programs and have that accessible online and offline as well as expand our makers spaces to reach children in all parts of TZ and the region #GEW2017#GEWChat#Socent https://t.co/VeIGej3Vg9
The sustainability aspect of a Social Enterprise, is compelling. I feel that everyone should be able to pursue their dreams, in service to community and be able to build a sustainable business while one is at it. #GEW2017#GEWChat#Socent https://t.co/G8jQsyP05N
We are lucky to be a part of the @R4C_Africa incubator that gives us invaluable training and support including financial sustainability training. Seeking best practices from partners within the same field is also key! #GEW2017#GEWChat#Socent https://t.co/nPvjOOtu0B
Simply amazing. That's one of the things we love about social entrepreneurship - it's not an easy profession but the job satisfaction rate goes through the roof when meaningful impact is created! Even more so when work centers around impact on children. #GEW2017#GEWchat#socent https://t.co/G1CuXSBPSS
Amani,1 of our jenga champions had a very one sided view of technology, before @JengaHub. After accessing our programs, Amani now uses software to create artwork, animations, simulations, websites, robotic constructions and is a thriving innovator #GEW2017#GEWChat#Socent https://t.co/llL2LgkiuC
Working with our children of @JengaHub is very rewarding for me! Witnessing them turn a challenge into a bold solution using tech tools is very fulfilling. They are creating the future they want right now! #GEW2017#GEWChat#Socent https://t.co/IXbBpgAEEs
We wanted to contribute to a more thriving education ecosystem in Tanzania. @JengaHub we believe that learning is a daylong and lifelong affair not limited to just the school. #GEW2017#GEWChat#Socent https://t.co/L1z3TLjORV
The Jenga Hub is a makers space and learning lab that is founded on the promise of a community of children and youth leveraging the use of technology and literature to create value and transform their lives. PT 1. #GEW2017#GEWChat@R4C_Africa https://t.co/VCP0lhIeMl
It came very naturally for me to pursue a passion that can be built into a business while creating tangible and positive impact to the community. I was raised by entrepreneurs and the work ethic and ideas were already with me from the very beginning #GEWChat#GEW2017@R4C_Africa https://t.co/i6otvuwGBA
It humbles me everyday, and reminds me never to take anything for granted. It also inspires me to give back in the same way I was afforded the education and opportunities I have had the fortune and favor to get #GEW2017#GEWChat#Socent https://t.co/4FGsUt05nO
I was born and grew up in the beautiful city of Arusha. I had an exciting childhood centered around a colorful imagination, a love of books, nature, and academics. My parents were strict when it came to school. They were not properly educated themselves but understood the value https://t.co/6U5wnEwJ0A
Today we have @NancySumari, a #socent from #Tanzania, and founder of @JengaHub, a makers space and learning lab that supports children and youth to build their digital literacy skills. #GEWChat
