Who We Are
Building Just, Prosperous Communities
With a vision to see Africa in which women & youth build just, prosperous, and sustainable communities through social innovation, Tedi Africa is a dynamic social enterprise operating in South Sudan and Kenya. Our interventions target women & youth who primarily hail from low socioeconomic backgrounds. We use a system thinking approach to confront deep social and economic issues such as abject poverty, and access constraints. We respond to these issues through a triple nexus (TEE) - spanning Technology, Education and Entrepreneurship.
