Joel Baraka grew up in a refugee camp in Uganda and he doesn’t have very good memories of attending school there. Classes were huge, resources were limited, and discipline was strict. But now he's created a board game, called 5 STA-Z that helps students in the same camp learn in a more engaged fashion. He's also the founder of the educational platform My Home Stars.
