About the Project

"Can't Wait to Learn" is a mobile application for children in grades 1-4, which makes studying mathematics and reading fun and interesting.

Goal

Allow all Ukrainian students of grades 1-4 to study according to Ukrainian educational programs in any part of the world and under any conditions.

notice

It has been developed by the international organization War Child Holland and the NGO "Osvitoria" in partnership with the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine.

This is how we help provide our children with knowledge, and Ukraine with a future.

Why do we need the app?

The COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine have caused serious losses to Ukrainian education.

According to official data, as of September 2022, more than 2,400 educational institutions were affected by bombing and shelling, 270 of which were completely destroyed. The war caused the appearance of 7 million children of war in Ukraine, most of whom are deprived of access to education.

A significant number of elementary school students found themselves outside of Ukraine, which distanced them from their native education system, in particular, from learning the Ukrainian language.

Therefore, to provide Ukrainian students of grades 1-4 with an effective tool for online learning, War Child Holland and NGO "Osvitoria" in partnership with the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine created a free educational application "Can't Wait to Learn". Among donors are UBS Optimus Foundation, Jacobs Foundation, Roger Federer Foundation, and Fourfold Foundation.

What is special about "Can't Wait to Learn"?

The content of the app – videos and games – is fully adapted for Ukraine.

All topics and tasks correspond to the Ukrainian curriculum and were developed by the best Ukrainian teachers and methodologists.

At the same time, the application was created according to the proven methodology of War Child – an organization that helps children of war to get an education since 1993.

But the most important thing is that the application is universal. It is suitable for learning both offline at school and online anywhere in the world. It is convenient to work with it both in the classroom and remotely.
