We created Swarmob to reduce the school access gap in three current educational challenges: global citizenship for sustainable development, online collaboration and, project-based learning for the development of 21st century skills. We seek to create a global, diverse and inclusive network of schools from all sectors for the education of social and environmental changemakers.
We provide a blended learning platform to be used by students, teachers and management teams of all school levels and subjects. With this platform, users learn to use the Network Project-Based Learning (N-PBL) methodology and manage their processes in a simple, autonomous and effective way. Thus, they teach and learn in a collaborative and interdisciplinary way, interrelating all the knowledge of the school curriculum and creating sustainable impact solutions together with a network of schools. The platform helps with project planning, monitoring, feedback, inter-institutional network collaboration and measurement of 21st century skills (creativity, collaboration, digital literacy, global citizenship, communication, critical thinking and self-awareness). In addition, Swarmob conducts practical teacher training workshops to enhance N-PBL within the institutional culture.
We partner with 50 institutions, impacting 15,105 students and 801 teachers and leaders across Chile, Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, and the USA. With a scalable digital system tailored to diverse contexts, we continue expanding into new schools and countries. Our innovation has earned global recognition from MIT Technology Review (Innovators Under 35 LATAM, 2024), the UN (STI Forum, 2021), International Centre for EdTech Impact - WiKIT (BRILLA Latam, 2025), Tecnológico de Monterrey (TecPrize, 2023), and HundrED (Global Collection, 2023, 2024, 2027).
Building on this scale, we recently scientifically evidenced Swarmob’s impact with the International Centre for EdTech Impact (ICEI). We psychometrically validated our assessment of five 21st-century skills and ran an ESSA Tier II–equivalent quasi-experimental study with 421 students across 8 schools in Chile and Colombia, finding statistically significant gains in the skills of the students in the experimental group. (p<.001; Cliff’s δ=.30–.59). These results contributed to EduEvidence certifications in Efficacy, Effectiveness, and Equity, reinforcing our commitment to rigorous, equity-driven innovation.
In addition, we conducted open reflection and professional development activities for teachers on education for sustainable development, with participants from 12 countries in Latin America, Spain, Canada and Australia.
We work with K12 educational institutions (schools, high schools) and local governments. We offer individualised modalities of participation according to each institution culture and degree of innovation, so that all of them can be part of it.
