Our Approach

We strive to maximize the social impact of our work by ensuring that all learning materials are accessible via our leading global edtech platform, while also changing the way content is created. It is important to provide learning materials and support to students with learning differences or disabilities living in low- and middle-income countries, as well as underserved communities in the US.  All learners have the right to access educational opportunities.

Expanding Educational Opportunities for Underserved Communities

Our deep technological knowledge and passion for social equality makes us a bridge between tech and social justice. Benetech works with underserved communities and students with learning variability. These are students who struggle to read and learn due to learning challenges like dyslexia, as well as blindness, low vision, cerebral palsy, and other physical disabilities.
