Partners & Supporters

We collaborate with community‑based organizations, schools, governments, and climate startups. Our approach is rooted in a two‑pronged Train‑to‑Deploy model by working with companies and organizations that can provide:


1) Training & Curriculum Expertise

  • Provide curriculum, technical materials, and industry best practices.
  • Send qualified experts or connect us with trainers to deliver sessions in Uganda.
  • Support training‑of‑trainers (ToT) so local instructors can continue teaching.

2) Technology & Equipment Supply

For graduates to train on real equipment and immediately apply skills to pilot and infrastructure projects in local communities/Uganda.

3) Shipping Containers for Modular Campuses

Contribute cargo containers to help build scalable, modular training hubs and innovation spaces.
