educational resources with the launch of a new e-library project that will benefit at least 11 million students and more than 200,000 teachers.
The project is a collaboration between the Tanzania Institute for Education (TIE) and Snapplify, a South Africa-based company specializing in educational technology.

He emphasized that the e-library project aims to
revolutionize education by ensuring access to quality educational resources throughout the country.
Bestbier also underscored the project's distinction as one of the largest digital education initiatives not only within Africa, but on a global scale.
Over the next three years, TIE and Snapplify plan to implement the e-library project in more than 19,000 public schools, providing students with a digital identity that allows them to access educational materials at their convenience.
