Notice from Build Africa

Background

Build Africa (BA) is an International NGO that believes in the power of education to help end poverty. We work to give children the education they need and fight the inequalities

that stand in their way. We partner with remote and rural communities where children are leaving school without vital basic skills.

Build Africa currently works in 13 districts in Uganda with its field programs coordinated through two Area offices located in Kumi and Masindi.

Build Africa's Change the Story project is a 3 year project to be part funded with UKaid from the UK Government's Department for International Development (DFID) and will be implemented in Kiryandongo and Oyam Districts. The project targets 2,243 young mothers in rural Uganda and is aimed at ensuring that they are able to better support their children's wellbeing and are playing a more impactful role in their homes and communities using new skills, including functional levels of literacy and numeracy. Build Africa will use culturally appropriate entry point of child-care skills for young mothers to then further equip them with literacy, numeracy and life skills, including financial management to enable them to take a more active role in their homes and communities, changing the landscape for their own children and leading to a virtuous development cycle beyond the life of the project.
