The Malaysian Collective Impact Initiative, or MCII, works with government schools, private corporations and non-profit organizations to address systemic issues in our education system. CEO Dipti Kumar explains how this model of structured collaboration, with intervention programmes currently running in 12 schools across the Klang area, can reduce the learning gap. Joining her is Charis Ding of MyReaders, a community-based initiative founded by a group of teachers with a mission to eliminate illiteracy.
