At the heart of this initiative is the development of a comprehensive training facility specifically designed for women who face unique barriers to skill acquisition and economic empowerment. The proposed Tshani Foundation Training Centre will be a pioneering gender-inclusive space that recognizes and accommodates the specific
Unique Infrastructure Features
- Integrated childcare facility allowing mothers to bring children during training
- Infant nursing and changing areas adjacent to classrooms
- Flexible training schedules accommodating women’s household responsibilities
- Private counseling spaces for trauma support and career guidance
- Female-only training environments ensuring cultural sensitivity
- Accessible design supporting women with mobility limitations
- Solar power systems ensuring reliable electricity for consistent training
Traditional training facilities often inadvertently exclude women, particularly mothers with young children, by failing to consider their unique circumstances. Our gender-inclusive approach removes these barriers through thoughtful design that addresses practical, cultural, and psychological needs. The facility will serve as both a training center and a model for gender-inclusive vocational education throughout Uganda and beyond.
