Deploying design-based, mixed-methods research, the study Raising Readers (Phase 1) explores how technology can be best used to strengthen parent and carer engagement with children’s reading in Kenya. In close collaboration with Worldreader, a digital reading organisation, five co-designed modalities (parental training, feedback loops, nudges/messaging, incentives, and reading celebrations) were tested in 14 schools across Nairobi and Kiambu counties over 12 weeks in 2022. The intervention...

Technologies have become smarter, smaller, more portable or wearable, and more adaptable. This has led to more choice and, in many cases, complexity in decision-making about selecting the best device and features for a given user. A good match of person and technology requires attention to (a) aspects of and resources in the environments in which the technology will be used, (b) the needs, expectations and preferences of the user, and (c) the functions and features of the technology and...

Since the turn of the millennium, considerable progress has been made in developing an evidence base on which interventions are effective and feasible for improving mental health in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Such evidence provides a critical input to the formulation of plans and priorities to address the large and growing burden of mental, neurological, and substance use (MNS) disorders. However, for successful and sustainable scale-up of effective interventions and...
