Highlights from Citizen TV’s Town Hall on Holiday Parenting “The times we are living in require mindset re-engineering. We need to change. The type of changes I would like us to think about are changes in five key areas.” — Patrick Chiriswa Andika, @KICDKenya

This Monday on #MondayReport, we bring parents, teachers, and community leaders to one table for a bold Town Hall discussion: on Holiday Parenting 📺 Join the conversation LIVE on @citizentvkenya #ParentsBeyondSchool #MondayReport

How should parents engage their children beyond the school gate? 🤔 From busy schedules, financial pressures, and ever-changing family realities, are parents doing enough to support their children during school holidays?

Do education systems in East Africa support teaching and learning for humanity? This blog highlights why #Values and #LifeSkills are critical even as we embrace competency-based education: alive-reli.org/why-nurturing-…

Meaningful discussions with our counterparts from Kenya, Mainland Tanzania, and Zanzibar, as we plan for @alive_programme phase 3. Together, we're committed to transforming education in East Africa and raising a generation of confident, ethical, and purposeful citizens.

ALiVE has sparked a resional response, collaboratine with governments. curriculum bodies, teacher colleges, and communities across Kenya, Uganda, Mainland Tanzania, and Zanzibar. #ALiVEUG

Without deliberate, system-wide efforts to address these gaps, they will persist and worsen. It's imperative that we take collective action to ensure that all children in East Africa acquire the competencies they need to thrive in life. #ALiVEUG

Congratulations to all journalists who have been selected for the education reporting grants, which aim to support education advocacy through the media. We are proud of the #MediaCollaborative made possible by @ZiziAfrique, @ReliAfrica and @MediaCouncilK

Amazing work going on across the region! Proud of our partners and the collaboration we have with ministries of education across East Africa!

The ALiVE team Uganda, @LGFnUg and @UwezoUganda, have embarked on a 2-day training of 60 assessors to conduct the school-based pilot data collection for the development of learning progressions for the skills of Creative Thinking, Problem Solving and Cooperation. The pilot will be conducted in 6 districts; Mukono, Kampala / Wakiso, Mubende, Kabale, Oyam and Tororo and is aimed at supporting the development of learning progressions for classes; P.6. S.1 and S.3 in a total of 72 schools targeting over 5000 learners. The development of learning progressions is focused on working with the system to coherently integrate life skills in curriculum and assessment, inform teacher practice and guide development of life skills.

"I am no longer the dictator mother that I used to be. I've learned to guide my children to solve problems. Now they are more independent and that frees me as well. This is courtesy of the parental engagement campaign by @alive_programme," Christine Likam, Loodariak, Kajiado.

During the RELI Uganda 2025 Annual Convening, our colleague @FNMubiru shared highlights about @alive_programme and moderated a panel on integrating life skills and values in East Africa's education systems. The discussion drew on successes and lessons from ALIVE, providing valuable takeaways for the education sector and other key stakeholders.

RELI Uganda members opened the #RELIConvening2025 with an inspiring exhibition of innovations driving equity, inclusion & quality learning. From classrooms to communities, these solutions showcase collective action for transformative education. #EducationTransformation

We are thrilled to participate in the RELI Uganda 2025 Annual Convening, themed 'Leveraging Data, Innovation, and Collaboration for Transformative Education in Uganda'.

Dr. William Sugut, Head Directorate of Secondary Education (Senior School Education): Our transition to Grade 10, we are more prepared than we were when we transitioned from 7-4-2-3 to 8-4-4 and the reason is that we have put a lot of emphasis on what it is that is required for us to be able to transition successfully #CitizenMondayReport
