Vision: One day, all children in Uganda will attain an equitable quality education. Background: Uganda is home to over 45 million people and it is arguably the youngest nation in the world. 78% of the population is under 30 years old out of which 50% is under 15 years old. 17 million children are in Uganda's schools. 70% of them never finish primary school due to poor quality education and high rates of teacher absenteeism. Every 7 years, 12 million children fall through the cracks of our education system. 90% of all teachers have been found incompetent by the Uganda National Examination Board. The overwhelming failure rate has led to 80% of youth unemployment exacerbating the cycle of poverty. Mission: To nurture leaders who are committed to advancing equitable access to quality education in low-income communities. What We Do: We are a partner in the Global Education Network, Teach For All. We train socially conscious, outstanding graduates and professionals from Uganda, who are actively interested in the social welfare of underprivileged children and orphans in Uganda. We groom these graduates and professionals into transformational teachers and leaders, equipped with adaptive skills, to teach for two years in the poorest schools in Uganda. Fellowship: This includes an intense, six-week residential training for fellows before they start teaching. This is followed by ongoing training and support throughout the two years of the fellowship, delivered through conferences, training sessions, leadership forums, online resources, and on-the-ground mentoring by a Program Manager. In the second year of the program, each fellow undertakes an assignment: The Ubuntu Community Project (UCP) wherein the Fellows ideate, plan and execute a project that benefits their students/ the school or the society as a whole. The Game Changer: Post fellowship, our alumni will join a network of like-minded leaders committed to advancing equitable access to quality education.
