Coming Saturday (22 January 2011) Ungana-Afrika's Participatory Entrepreneurship Development (PED) project kicks off with its first workshop. In this project Ungana-Afrika assists people who live in disadvantaged communities, but who have plenty of entrepreneurial aspiration and energy, in performing local participatory ICT (Information and Communication Technology) needs assessment, and in the development of business ideas based on identified community needs.

For the last six years Ungana-Afrika has been going from country to country creating awareness of models and strategies that can be applied to provide ICT support services for under-served communities, with a particular focus on non-profit organisations and small to medium sized enterprises.
