Telkom Group and Eskom Collaborate to Empower Education in Underserved Communities

Telkom Group and Eskom, two of South Africa’s leading state-owned enterprises (SOEs), have partnered through a strategic collaboration framework to harness their collective expertise and resources in support of education. This initiative is focused on empowering learners across the country—particularly in rural and previously disadvantaged communities—by expanding access to quality educational materials and digital learning platforms.

The joint effort aims to ensure that more schools, from Grade R to Grade 12, are equipped with the tools and content they need to enhance learning outcomes. Central to this initiative is the promotion of energy efficiency education, with learning materials made easily accessible through an online platform designed to support both learners and educators.

Through this partnership, Telkom and Eskom reaffirm their shared commitment to bridging South Africa’s knowledge and digital divides. By investing in the future of the nation’s youth, the companies are not only supporting the development of digital and energy literacy but also enabling long-term socio-economic upliftment.
