Bujagali Energy Limited launched a five-year (2023-2027) community investment program titled “Vocational scholarship”.
The overall objective is to equip youths with hands on skills for self-employment. The program seeks to expand employment opportunities to hundreds of youths from Bujagali Energy Ltd’s project affected areas through access to skills and knowledge directly responsive to market demands.
In March 2023, a total of 10 students were granted scholarship opportunities at Jinja Vocational Training Institute.
The program also indirectly contributes to inclusive economic growth by engaging marginalized youth, with particular focus on girls, in the project affected villages of Bujagali Hydro power plant.
