| 1st Lady Denise Nkurunziza |
First Lady of Burundi, H.E.
Denise Nkurunziza, Founder of the BUNTU Foundation is identifying the need to
move Burundi into the IT age. There are many obstacles but together, with the
BUNTU Foundation, H.E. Denise Nkurunziza is pushing forward for the sake of
their youth and the education arenas they need to move into.
Due to a lack of electricity
in rural areas and computer labs in many schools, in Burundi, almost 99% of
pupils finish high schools without touching even a mouse of a computer. In
order to improve education in our nation, BUNTU Foundation has decided to reach
schools in villages, particularly those in final years; offering them classes
on Computer Basics, Introduction to Microsoft Windows, Introduction to
Microsoft Word and Internet basics.
These classes are held in a
BUNTU Foundation IT Bus that accommodates 18 students. This IT Bus is designed
to even reach those schools where there is no electricity and generators are
used for power. The First Lady continues to advance her country and to empower the next generations.
