The Akilah Institute is a college for women in East Africa offering a unique model of market-relevant education. We work closely with our partners in government, civil society, and the private sector to deliver a curriculum that prepares our graduates to move directly into professional careers and leadership roles. We focus on three of the fastest-growing industries in East Africa today: Business Management and Entrepreneurship, Hospitality Management, and Information Systems. Our results prove the value of our model: 88% of our graduates secure employment within 6 months of graduating and earn, on average, 12x the national median income.
