About US
Teach A Man To Fish is guided by a simple, all-encompassing mission to empower young people with the skills they need to succeed, in school, work, and life. Through our flagship programme, the School Enterprise Challenge, we work with schools around the world to set up School Businesses which are both educational and profitable. Students are guided step-by-step to “learn by doing” as they plan and set up a real business. We equip teachers with skills and resources to help their students gain practical business experience and to develop essential life skills such as teamwork, leadership, communication and problem-solving through their School Business. At the same time, schools benefit from additional income and the businesses become sustainable in the long term. We aim to tackle an important and global issue with our work – there are more than 71 million young people unemployed worldwide International Labour Organisation 2018. In Uganda, nearly 70% of youth are engaged in vulnerable employment, and less than half of the youth population has completed or is attending schools. This causes severe challenges for young people entering the workplace they have not developed the skills necessary to be competitive in a job market that has few opportunities.
 
Since 2011, Teach A Man To Fish’s vision has been that, through our School-Business Model, young people in school will gain not just academic knowledge, but also entrepreneurial and business competencies and mind-sets that will help them to succeed in school, work and life. The student led school businesses provide the platform for experiential learning in a real-world context, boost the quality and relevance of education, and assist students to build the skills that will enable them to fulfil their potential in work and in life. This will contribute to a reduction in youth unemployment in the long term and empower communities to lift themselves out of poverty – for good. For example, in 2019, 73% of former School Enterprise Challenge program participants tracked were in employment, self-employment or further education.

Teach A Man To Fish Uganda collects a range of data and individual stories each year to understand the impact of our programmes. This data indicates that our School-Business model is effective in building students’ business knowledge, transferable/life skills and confidence. An external evaluation of our School Enterprise Challenge programme in Uganda, 2018 confirmed that the programme is well-designed to respond to the challenge of providing young people with the knowledge, business skills and life skills required to find gainful employment after school Jigsaw Consult, 2018.
 
In 2019, Teach A Man To Fish commissioned an evaluation of the impact of its flagship programme, the School Enterprise Challenge awards programme for primary schools in Arua, Mpigi and Dokolo districts in Uganda. Among other things, the external evaluation found that participating learners performed better in STEM subjects Physics, Biology, Maths, and Agriculture than non-participating learners ROA, 2020. Despite the evidence from external evaluations and internal project monitoring and evaluation, there are still challenges to leverage evidence of impact to advocate for policy and curriculum changes at a national level in Uganda; and influence the efforts of other development organizations and donor bodies in strengthening education quality and relevance.
