In 2023, Dignitas continued its investment in empowering, equipping, and supporting teachers and school leaders to deliver quality learning for all. The organization partnered with 603 schools across 10 counties in Kenya to improve learning for more than 148,000 students. Dignitas strengthened the instructional and site leadership capacities of 3,140 school leaders. As the organization celebrated its 15th annivesary, Dignitis continued to focus its work on transforming education systems in Kenya and beyond by co=creating solutions with system -level actors. Dignitas worked with 50 county education oficers to provide ongoing coaching and support as one of the various efforts to further embed evidence-based practices in government structures and systems. This strategic alignment is consistent with Dignitas' 2023-2028 direction, which aspires to impact student learning far beyond direct programming. Dignitas also engaged in numerous collective action discussions, ranging from the use of educational technology to enhance learning, to gender equality and inclusion, foundational literacy and numeracy, and the transformative role of schoole leadership.
