Home / About / Mission-Vision-Impact

In the 21st century, access to and use of technology is no longer a luxury -- it’s a necessity. Digital literacy is as critical as reading and writing, especially in today's global economy, where the ability to navigate digital spaces is required for education, employment, and entrepreneurship. However, the digital literacy gap remains wide, particularly in rural African communities, where many students have no access to computers or digital tools either at school or home.

The Digital Divide: Why It Matters

The disparities in access to technology are particularly stark in rural Africa. Without access to the tools and skills needed to participate in the digital world, students in these regions are at a significant disadvantage.

The Reality:

  • Most students in rural African secondary schools do not have access to computers at school or home.

  • The digital literacy gap prevents these students from fully participating in the modern economy, leaving them without the skills needed for higher education, jobs, or entrepreneurial opportunities.

This digital divide is not just an educational problem—it perpetuates cycles of poverty and social exclusion. Students who lack digital literacy are unable to compete in today’s interconnected world, further widening the gap between rural and urban communities. Angaza Center’s Mission is clear: To empower these students with the digital skills they need to fully participate in the digital economy, thereby improving both their economic and social circumstances.

Mission

Angaza Center, a tax-exempt nonprofit organization, is dedicated to addressing this gap. We are on a mission to improve the economic and social circumstances of young girls and boys in rural African secondary schools through the transformative power of technology access and digital literacy education.
