Rushlake Media partners with Ubongo, Africa’s favourite producer of educational entertainment, to distribute its popular titles Akili and Me, Nuzo and Namia, and Ubongo Kids in North America and Europe.
Ubongo—with an impressive monthly reach of 42 million children across Africa—is well-known for providing affordable, high-quality educational content promoting literacy, numeracy, and social-emotional skills.
This exciting new partnership will allow Rushlake Media to help bring Ubongo’s unique and impactful stories to a wider global audience, furthering its mission of sharing Africa’s authentic voice with the rest of the world.
“We are delighted to collaborate with Ubongo in introducing these remarkable educational series to fresh audiences,” said Philipp Hoffman, founder and CEO of Rushlake Media. “The demand for accessible, top-tier learning tools has never been greater. We are privileged to play a part in advancing Ubongo’s mission to empower young minds globally through engaging, evidence-based content.”
Mwasi Wilmore, CEO of Ubongo, emphasised the company’s belief that every child, regardless of location, deserves access to enjoyable, engaging, and transformative educational experiences. He highlighted that the partnership with Rushlake Media would enable Ubongo to extend its reach, sharing its beloved content with more families across North America and Europe. This collaboration, he noted, would allow more children to benefit from their research-driven learning approach, and Ubongo is excited about the opportunity to inspire young learners globally.
This partnership is important in bringing African storytelling and innovative educational programming to a broader international audience.
