Dieumerci Christel’s story begins in a Tanzanian refugee camp, where resilience wasn’t a choice, but a daily necessity. Today, he has transformed those early challenges into a powerful force for change in education. As the Founder and CEO of Enlightapp, Dieumerci combines concise strategic thinking with restless creativity to build an AI-driven platform that turns student voices into actionable insights. Used in schools across the US, Enlightapp’s “check-in” surveys and data-driven stories help teachers connect with each learner’s unique background, boosting engagement and belonging in real time. Beyond tech, Dieumerci’s approach is deeply human: he believes every student has an untold story that can become a bridge between cultures and classrooms. His vision extends far beyond K–12, aiming to reshape how institutions, communities, and even policymakers understand and support diverse learners. A self-taught entrepreneur fluent in four languages, Dieumerci dreams of maximizing social impact and one day earning his PhD in neuroeconomics. As a speaker and author, Dieumerci uses his journey to inspire audiences and champion educational equity, urging leaders and communities to take meaningful action toward a more inclusive and just future.
