Coherence with UN’s Sustainable Development Goals
Quality Education
We are committed to re-imagining education in Africa. We will do so by creating possibilities for every child to receive quality education leveraging technology. Alumni can raise funds on our platform for projects in their alma maters. Education stakeholders can also connect, forge ideologies and establish best practice that will create a positive impact in the continent
Gender Equity
This fundamental human right is critical for fostering a peaceful, prosperous and a sustainable world. We will help education stakeholders collate data and provide insights that will drive parents/corporate partners to empower the girl child in order to receive access to quality education. Data also supports the prioritization of schools that need urgent attention
Decent Work & Economic Growth
Africa boasts of a young working population. However, any economy’s sustained growth is not solely focused on youth, but high productivity promoted by investment in human capital development. With AlumUnite, alumni can improve employment rates on the continent through mentorship and career guidance.
Reduced Inequality
Partner schools and under-privileged communities can access resources required to encourage learning and inclusive education. AlumUnite facilitates this process, enabling the distribution of financial capital between and among countries. Local and alumni-run businesses also participate in executing projects, creating a world that is inclusive and an environment for SMEs and the local workforce to thrive.
