Paratus Launches EduLINK Initiative To Provide Starlink Internet To Schools Across Africa

Paratus Group, a leading pan African telecommunications provider and authorised reseller of Starlink, has launched Paratus EduLINK, a connectivity initiative designed to equip schools in remote and underserved regions with reliable, high-speed internet.

With the campaign message Empowering Education, Anywhere, the programme is positioned to make digital learning accessible to more learners across the continent, regardless of their geographical location.

Leveraging Starlink’s Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite technology, EduLINK is designed to overcome the infrastructure barriers that have historically hindered digital access in isolated communities.

Additionally, the service will initially be available to schools in Botswana, Eswatini, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Rwanda, and Zambia.

Eligible schools, those with a recognised Education Certificate, will benefit from a package that includes 2TB of Priority Data per month, followed by a substantial buffer to support ongoing educational use.

The EduLINK rollout is anchored by the Standard Starlink Kit, which is sold separately and professionally installed.

Paratus also offers localised support, flexible in-country payment options, and ongoing customer care, an essential consideration for schools operating in areas where technical capacity may be limited.
