Commitment

As a behaviour change SaaS platform and learning community, Turn.io helps social impact organizations to build scalable chat-for-impact programmes to support teachers and learners globally.

Turn.io has helped to improve education outcomes and COVID -19 responses through supporting our 100+ customers using our platform to build Chat-for-Impact services.

Some of which are the world’s leading social impact organisations including the World Health Organisation, UNHCR, Sesame Workshop, 12 National Government Departments of Health and numerous educational non-profits.

As part of our ongoing commitment to support education outcomes, we commit to sharing best practices, training and knowledge on chat for impact services.

This will be driven through our Chat for Impact Community and our Chat for Impact events and will be for free to any member of the coalition.
