Our Story
Kamkalima Co-founders
Witnessing the decline in Arabic proficiency firsthand as educators, we saw the many faces of learning poverty play out in classrooms. Students who excelled in other subjects struggled in Arabic, revealing a disconnect between passion for learning and engagement with the language. Fueled by this observation and our own love of learning, we sought innovative methods to make Arabic interactive and enjoyable. This sparked our vision for Kamkalima. Driven by the conviction that we could, and should, do something about this educational gap, Kamkalima was born. 
Our Goal
Our vision is to make this number obsolete. We want to empower a young generation who can express themselves in Arabic, personally, professionally, and creatively. We see the language as a medium to think, reflect, and build skills.  Through language learning, we can better understand the world around us and explore creative solutions to problems affecting us today.
The Issue
Current rates of learning poverty show that children are struggling with Arabic literacy. This problem is not exclusive to lower and middle income MENA countries, but includes high income GCC countries as well.  Overall, 59% in the Arab World cannot read and understand an age-appropriate text in their native language by age 10. 

This is a problem we are intent on solving.
