3079: MBS: International Literacy Day - Preparing South Sudan’s Children for a Digital Future

Today we join the world in celebrating International Literacy Day, marked every year on the 8th of September. This year’s theme, “Literacy in a Digital Era,” is especially relevant for South Sudan, where the challenge is not only teaching children to read and write, but also equipping them with the digital skills needed to thrive in a rapidly changing world.

To explore this important topic, we’re joined in the studio by Madam Emmanuela Melling Daniel, a teacher at Jubilee Academy, along with two young learners, Marvin Canwat Onen and Miss Tiwa Duwar. 



In this episode, they’ll share what literacy means to them, how technology is transforming education, and their hopes for the future.
