Bio
Matt Keller is the Senior Director of the Global Learning XPRIZE. Matt is leading an effort to develop a prize that will challenge teams from all over the world to create innovative technologies that will reach the poorest and most remote children on Earth – children who have no access to school or any kind of quality learning environment. Previously, in his capacity as Senior Vice-President of One Laptop per Child (OLPC), Matt led OLPC’s ground-breaking literacy project in remote Ethiopia testing the theory that children from non-literate communities could teach themselves to read using tablets filled with applications designed for self-learning.
Matt has also served as a senior program officer with the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) for five years, serving in Rome, Italy, and as Legislative Director for Common Cause in Washington, DC where he led efforts on Capitol Hill focusing on openness, accountability, and campaign finance reform in the United States Congress. Matt has also worked as a lawyer and lobbyist on behalf of migrant farm workers in the Southwest United States, and as a Jesuit Volunteer in Portland, Maine.
