The problem we are solving
In Uganda and across refugee communities, thousands of youth are unemployed—not because they lack talent, but because they lack access to capital, markets and mentorship. GO USETECH closes this gap.

- Branding and design support
- Optional incubation for promising businesses
Who it is for
Youth aged 15–35, refugees and host community members, women and girls, persons with disabilities, vocational and ICT graduates, and groups building CBOs, SACCOs or social enterprises.
