Our work aims to improve outcomes for students, teachers, and entrepreneurs by providing them with technology and training. This is something we have worked towards for over 20 years, whether working at a school with electricity but no ICT infrastructure, or a community centre with aspiring-youth, but limited facilities.
To date, here are some of the ways our work has benefitted individuals and communities:
