Hi I am
Akhona Mxatule
Frontend Developer | MPhil Development Studies Student| Agent of Positive Change| Aspiring EdTech PraCademic
Currently based in Cape Town, South Africa, Akhona is an Agent of Positive Change operating at the intersection of academia and implementing practical & holistic youth development initiatives (PraCademic in short). Additionally, I am a second-year MPhil Development Studies student at the University of Cape Town with a research interest in the Digital Divide as a development issue that perpetuates social inequalities.
While working in Fintech, Akhona grew a keen interest in EdTech, leading her to founding a digital skills development project where, for 5 years, she taught basic computer literacy skills to grade 8-12 learners at Chris Hani High School.
