LOCATION(S): Burundi, Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda, Sudan, Uganda

Introduction:
Most youth from communities in remote and marginalized areas lack skills that could easily be achieved through proper use of computers and the internet to acquire knowledge vital for business management.

The Problem:
Lack of proper education and computer skills (ICT) is a major setback towards marginalized communities becoming self reliant and thus economically empowered.

The Idea:
Through education and teaching of computer skills to the schooling population and the community we shall be able to achieve a self sustainable and economically empowered population in the future.

Youth require skills such as business management, modern farming methods and general knowledge. This can be achieved through promoting adult literacy, teaching of IT & computing skills and putting into productive use the knowledge and skills acquired.

Through setting up adult literacy, IT and computer skills training and resource centers in strategic areas within marginalized communities to offer training. Outreach programs shall also be used to reach out to the remotest areas.
