The Learning Space

Based on simple design and local structure, The Learning Space offers wifi and learning with art on the wall for 12 people at a time. Locations are free or fee based, and we are partnering with existing locations where possible, and collaborating locally to build new spaces if affordable access to the internet is missing.

Over recent years we have gained experience through small pilots with PDRI in Kenya, Ssala Institute in Uganda and Tinap4Development in Sierra Leone, as well as in Vienna.

Sample spaces currently include :-

Shared use

Victor's Cafe, Accra, Ghana

Kin Klan, Kenya

STMP, Kenya

Dedicated Sites

Jeffs Space, Kitui, Kenya

Juliets Ssala Institute in Kampala, Uganda

Beach Cafe, Lumley Beach, Freetown, Sierra Leone

The Learning on offer is largely based on the Mattersburg Football Academy in Austria, where kids could play football, and learn a trade or profession. We are seeking applications for free or fee course offerings, and are actively building a student community across the continent. 

We intend by end of 2024 to be offering free and fee internet and free or fee courses at Micro Academies in 54 Capital cities around Africa, with a student community in Africa of some 2 million, with half paying membership of 2 dollars per month and half as scholarship students.
