BALI – Marriott International Indonesia continues its commitment in community empowerment initiatives with the launch of EdTech Project, an educational partnership between Marriott Business Council Bali and Bali Children Foundation (BCF).
Intending to revolutionize education by integrating cutting-edge Education Technology (EdTech) solutions into four schools in Songan Village, the project facilitates personalized learning experiences for elementary students in the remote area.
The EdTech Project team visited Sekolah Dasar Negeri 2, 5, 6, and 8 in Songan Village for program assessments and to further celebrate the milestone, Marriott International’s hotels and resorts in Bali will curate engaging activities including fun games, quizzes, educational sessions and school lunch with the students.
Marriott Business Council Bali and Bali Children Foundation (BCF) started their collaboration in 2017, focusing on school refurbishments in Songan Village supported by Marriott International’s ‘Run to Give’ charity fund.
