Our focus is on providing support for marginalised women, youth and emerging entrepreneurs towards becoming active economic citizens while preserving their natural and cultural heritage. We do this through replicating various components of our award-winning Sustainable Development Model, which is built on four key pillars, i.e.
Tourism Development
Hand-Craft Development
Youth Education
Research and Advisory Services
Established in 2004, Africa!Ignite is a non-profit rural development agency. Most of Africa!Ignite’s beneficiaries are based in deep rural and marginalized peri-urban, largely tribal areas, which are plagued by endemic poverty, high unemployment and associated socio-economic challenges. While our work was initially focussed in Kwa-Zulu Natal, we have over the years increasingly worked across the whole of South Africa, having delivered project in all provinces with current work focussed in the Eastern Cape, Gauteng and Kenya.
