Center
Rooted Wisdom Africa is committed to building Uganda’s first fully self-sustaining Empowerment Center and Demonstration Farm by 2030. This nationally recognized, community-owned hub will provide vocational training, business development, and demonstration agriculture to transform rural communities into places of opportunity and innovation.
Why It Matters
Rural Ugandans—especially youth, women, and farmers—are often forced to leave their villages in search of livelihoods. The Center will reverse that trend by offering:
- Vocational training (mechanics, tailoring, brickmaking, computer technology)
- Enterprise development and small business incubation (retail shops,
food stalls) - Agricultural innovation through demonstration gardens and plant nursery
- Community learning spaces for training, markets, and social connection
Impact
- Over 6,000 people reached through skills training, enterprise development, and community programs.
- A replicable model designed for expansion across Uganda.
- Long-term sustainability through revenue-generating activities
(coffee production, small enterprises).
Phase One
Establish infrastructure, facilities, and launch initial programs. Anticipated Cost: $206,330 | Funding Secured: $140,760 (68%)
Phase Two
Expand facilities, equipment, and programs for long-term impact. Anticipated Cost: $75,000
Our goal is not just to build a center, but to spark a movement—proving a sustainable model that can be scaled and eventually transitioned to full local ownership.
