Across the Global South, education systems are constrained by fragmented, inaccessible, and often expensive digital solutions that fail to scale or integrate across schools and ministries. Governments need modular, open-source, and interoperable digital education systems that support identity, assessments, and content delivery—yet few such platforms exist in formats that are localizable, affordable, and policy-aligned.
Following the global endorsement of Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) at the G20 India Summit, donors and multilateral agencies are seeking ready-to-scale models that prioritize inclusion, sovereignty, and long-term public benefit.
The Open Learning Infrastructure for All (OLIA) project is a DPI-aligned initiative to develop and deploy a government-adoptable, open-source EdTech platform designed for scalability, local adaptability, and policy integration.
OLIA enables ministries of education, local governments, and NGOs to easily plug in student ID systems, learning content, assessment tools, and reporting dashboards into one secure, flexible platform—laying the foundation for equitable, tech-enabled public education systems.
