The Jacobs Foundation Board recognizes Ubongo for their exceptional efforts to provide quality edutainment with localized educational cartoons to children in Africa, and especially for their response to COVID-19 related challenges.
Ubongo, meaning “brain” in Kiswahili, came to life in 2013 with the aim to help kids in Africa to learn, and leverage their learning to change their lives.
The Kahoot! for All Project, funded by the LEGO Foundation, is focused on neurodiversity and learning through play!
MIPTV has announced that Ubongo and Open Planet will each be recognized with a MIP SDG AWARD, presented in association with the United Nations, at the upcoming MIPTV market (April 8-10, 2024).
The African children’s edutainment creator Ubongo and the Open Planet free footage library are set to be honored with MIP SDG Awards, presented in association with the United Nations.

As a non-profit social enterprise we create fun, localised and multi-platform educational content that helps kids learn, and leverage their learning to change their lives.
