As we close the chapter on 2024 and embark on a promising 2025, TNSE is proud to share some of the incredible milestones achieved and the exciting projects on the horizon. Our mission to make STEM education accessible and inspiring continues to expand across borders, creating meaningful connections and impactful experiences.
Our First Presentation in Portuguese: Engaging with the Senegalese Community in Brazil
December marked a significant moment for TNSE as we delivered our first presentation in Portuguese to the Associação dos Estudantes Senegaleses no Brasil. The Senegalese community came together, fostering rich discussions on how STEM education can be implemented in Brazil. The enthusiasm and curiosity shown by the attendees were inspiring, and we are eager to explore opportunities to introduce robotics and STEM initiatives tailored to their needs. This exchange of ideas has set the stage for future collaborations and impactful projects.
Bargny Diaspora Partnership and the Opening of a New STEM Space
December also saw the inauguration of our exciting partnership with Bargny Diaspora, culminating in the opening of a dedicated space to offer more STEM and robotics workshops. This milestone is a testament to our commitment to empowering communities through education and innovation. Stay tuned as we roll out various programs aimed at equipping young minds with the skills needed to excel in the rapidly evolving technological landscape. Follow our journey and be part of this groundbreaking initiative!

A Magical Encounter with Sabbih and Paje School
January 2025 brought an unforgettable experience as we met Sabbih—the real-life inspiration behind Le Monde de Sabbih. Visiting her home and meeting her entire family was a heartwarming moment, as we gifted them copies of the book in Swahili-English.

The highlight of our trip was our meeting with the Director of Paje School, who has officially agreed to include the book in the school's curriculum this year. This integration will allow students to learn from Sabbih's story, inspiring them to pursue their dreams despite challenges.
