Work With Us

Want to be at the cutting edge of institutions exploring the use of ed tech to support learners in developing countries around the world? Then we have the place for you!

The Mobiles for Education (mEducation) Alliance is a non-governmental organization focused on the evidence-driven and sustainable role of technology in education to advance quality educational outcomes. Initially formed in 2010, the mEducation Alliance is a unique, multi-stakeholder convening platform for government and donor policymakers, other investors, researchers, and practitioners to work together, particularly in lower-resource, developing country contexts.

Three strategic goals form the basis of our work:

  • Convening: we connect global and national EdTech investors, policymakers, and practitioners;
  • Communicating: we share good practices and interventions with a global EdTech community.; and,
  • Catalyzing: we identify and help fill gaps in the education “ecosystem” through pilot projects, research, and the scaling of promising interventions and initiatives; and,
  • Community-Building: we bring together leading organizations that share common interests.

We are looking for highly motivated individuals interested in the intersection between international development and EdTech to work with our team.

Is that you? Please see the job descriptions below:
