The Border Hub

The Border Hub is a community based innovation Hub located in the border of Kenya and Uganda. We majorly support vulnerable women and youth in areas around innovation and business reengineering, Skills building and entrepreneurship and advocacy work on health and policy. Our work is anchored on the need to leverage the young population at the border town to provide innovative and sustainable solutions to poverty, illiteracy, and unemployment, which has exposed the youth, men, and women of the border town to exploitation, gender-based violence, sexual manipulation, child marriage, violent extremism, transactional sex and crime, resulting in a socio-economically deteriorated community whose people lack sustainable income. This has limited the community’s ability to access healthcare, skilled education, information, and opportunities required to generate sustainable income.
