This School Defies All Odds—And I Got to Speak There | IC3 Regional Forum

Hosted at Still I Rise International School in the heart of Mathare, Nairobi—one of Africa’s largest informal settlements—this forum brings educators together to advance student counseling and career clarity. But what left me speechless? Discovering a FREE International Baccalaureate (IB) school thriving in Mathare. Yes—a world-class education, completely free, in a community where opportunity is often scarce. This day reminded me that authenticity isn’t a luxury—it’s a lifeline for students navigating adversity. Watch & Reflect: How would you redefine “opportunity” after seeing this? 💬 Huge gratitude to IC3 Movement for the invitation and Still I Rise for their revolutionary work.
