STEM and robotics training for deaf students in Ghana
Overview
Various organizations have implemented robotics and electronics training programs for deaf and hard-of-hearing students across different regions in Ghana.
In the Volta Region, the Telecel Foundation, in collaboration with the Mingo Foundation, provided hands-on robotics training to 100 students at the Volta School for the Deaf in Hohoe. The initiative focused on STEM subjects to foster creativity and problem-solving skills through practical engineering projects.
In the Northern Region, the non-profit Untamed Voices organized a two-day workshop for over 80 students at the Savelugu School for the Deaf. Using Arduino-based kits, students learned about coding, electronics, and engineering. This program, conducted alongside FemAid360 and the Golden Inspire Foundation, also included sessions on self-advocacy and breast cancer awareness. To support long-term development, Untamed Voices plans to establish a STEM club and provide ongoing mentorship to high-potential students.
