Kyamukoona Skills Centre
Kyamukoona Skills Centre fills an important vacuum for those who leave school, but cannot continue in other learning centres, either because they lack the minimum educational requirements or because they cannot afford them.
Milk-Goat Breeding Programme
The aim is to improve the local breed of goats, which are often small and produce little milk. By artificially inseminating adult females with the sperm of a pedigree milk-buck, her half-bred offspring is the first step in improving the local breed.
Education Support
