Kupanda Project
Improving Girls Secondary Education: In addition to building and refurbishing schools, ASAP has created a replicable model to increase girls’ secondary school graduation rates in East Africa and to empower young women to ignite change in their communities. The Kupanda Project for Girls is predicated on the idea that there are many answers to the question “What does a girl in rural East Africa need to be successful in school?” It will support girls in a holistic way to access and succeed in secondary school, thereby improving the likelihood that they will graduate and pursue tertiary education and/or employment. Ultimately, this initiative will empower thousands of girls to improve their lives and inspire change for future generations. The Kupanda Project will include 1) dormitories with wrap-around services, including safety, nutrition, clean water, sanitation and menstrual support, 2) academic programs, including teacher training, science & math, computer training, and personal tutoring, 3) leadership & empowerment development, and 4) community education and engagement to build support for girl’s education. Once we prove that a holistic system of support for girls will boost graduation rates, ASAP plans to replicate the model at other rural secondary schools throughout Tanzania and East Africa.
