WALKING FOR EDUCATION BOTSWANA CHAPTER

Walking for Education (WFE) members ran and walked in the 10K, 21K, and 42K events at Sunday’s University of Botswana Marathon in Gaborone on Sept 6.
Ranging in age from 7 to 55+, WFE participants raised awareness among fellow runners about the importance of education in their communities.

Walking for Education (WFE) is the flagship Social Responsibility initiative of Mentorship for Excellence International Botswana (MEI-B).

We walk in cities and villages, along streets and trails. We urge community involvement in the education and upkeep of schools.

We also advocate role modelling for students and support for teachers. Together, we can collectively improve education for our students.

So, why do we walk?

Because someone walked for us—making our education possible.
We pay it forward to those who helped us by helping those who need it today.

WFE team believes it's our turn to walk for those who come after us.

Walking for Education Initiative – Community Action at Mophane Primary School:

On 14 March 2026, Mentorship for Excellence International hosted the Walking for Education Initiative at Mophane Primary School, Block 5, Gaborone, to engage active community citizens and encourage involvement.
The day begun with a 5 km community walk that celebrated education as a lifelong journey, fostering pride and unity among parents, teachers, and leaders committed to building a legacy of learning.
After the walk, teachers, PTA members, students, and community volunteers came together to clean, w**d, and beautify the school grounds — fostering shared responsibility and a sense of ownership for our children's future.
Building on this momentum, Mentorship for Excellence International is now working to refurbish the school gate and signage, demonstrating our shared commitment to creating a welcoming, child-friendly environment that reflects the strength and resilience symbolised by the Mophane tree.
Through this initiative, we aim to deepen community ownership of schools, fostering dignified learning environments and inspiring mentorship for learners, so everyone feels empowered to contribute.

When communities unite around education, real transformation happens.
