Yeti Confetti for Refugees

Solution Pitch

The Problem

Thirteen years into Syria's conflict, over 2,000,000 Syrian refugee children displaced in neighbouring countries are deprived of education, and 1.3 million are at risk of dropping out. Socioeconomic crises heighten these challenges, leading to child labour and early marriages, risking a lost generation without access to innovative educational interventions.

The Solution

Yeti Confetti for Refugees is an AI-Personalized Learning Companion designed for early childhood education, targeting out-of-school refugee children. It teaches English, Math, and Socio-Emotional Skills through a dynamic, contextually appropriate intervention powered by "three brains and a heart":

1. AI Tutor: Generates interactive, step-by-step activities, tailored to the child's language and learning needs, building literacy and numeracy skills.
2. AI Librarian: Curates 800+ teacher-approved resources, providing real-time, personalized learning materials like songs, audiobooks, and videos.
3. AI Physician: Ensures healthy screen time with breaks every 20 minutes, promoting cognitive and visual well-being.

Yeti, the heart of our solution, fosters a growth mindset, encouraging resilience and positive self-talk. This AI-powered tool adapts to each child’s pace, offering a personalized curriculum and engaging parents and teachers with progress updates, ensuring holistic, effective education for refugee children who can't attend school regularly.
