KCFI helps improve education and learning outcomes through educational video lessons and teacher trainingsMarch is Fire Prevention Month, and Knowledge Channel Foundation Inc. (KCFI) has a video on disaster preparedness for fires on YouTube. It has also wrapped up work on shows about one of the factors that has been causing a lot of wildfires—climate change.

“Tropang K!-Likasan” developed with CEMEX Philippines Foundation focuses on proper waste disposal and management to mitigate climate change for Grades 4 to 5 learners. Another show, “Lakbay Aral,” was developed with Save the Children for 3- to 8-year-old learners, especially those from indigenous communities, and tackles climate change and our collective responsibility to care for the environment.

KCFI has been continuously strengthening its commitment to early childhood development (ECD), too. Through the support and generosity of the Rotary Clubs of Makati Premier District, Metropolitan Pateros and Makati, as well as Raissa Hechanova-Posadas, the foundation is rolling out its KC ECD training program to 10 child development centers in Pateros.

The foundation continues to provide access to Knowledge Channel videos through the KC Portable Media Library and KC TV package and to train recipients from all over the country through partnerships with BPI Foundation, Unilever-Breeze Philippines, Aboitiz Power, Rep. Sittie Dimaporo of Lanao del Norte and Wishlink Foundation.

Various partners have commended KCFI’s continuing efforts in improving education and learning. Over the last month, it was recognized as an exceptional partner in supporting the Department of Education’s basic education development plan during the 2024 Partners’ Appreciation and Recognition program, a Partner in Empowerment, Advocacy and Commitment to Excellence or PEACE Awardee of the Metrobank Foundation during its 45th anniversary celebration, an invaluable partner of Bantay Bata 163 during its 27th anniversary-2024 Partners’ Appreciation event and a recipient of the Green ZEAL Award for Excellence in Education Innovation during the 6th Gawad Lasallianeta of De La Salle Araneta University.
