Shona. Science. Shared Knowledge.

Africa’s knowledge deserves its own language of innovation. Dzimbahwe Scholar is an open-source movement to build a living STEM dictionary — crafted for learners, by learners.

Why the time for change is now.

54 Nations. One Language of Knowledge.

For generations, African students have learned science and mathematics in foreign languages. Dzimbahwe Scholar aims to empower students to think and innovate in Shona — bringing cultural depth and local relevance into every classroom.

This project isn’t a dictionary alone — it’s an open educational movement, a platform where teachers, learners, and communities co-create scientific understanding that truly belongs to us.
