Our Approach

African Revival believes education is a fundamental right and a route out of poverty – our vision is an Africa where every child has equal access to quality education. Since 2005, we have worked with over 300 primary and nursery schools in Uganda, South Sudan (and previously, Zambia), to allow over 120,000 children to fulfil their potential. We don’t just build classrooms, we empower whole communities – to transform schools into thriving learning environments that build brighter, better futures.

We start where the need is greatest, and the community is committed. Working with local education authorities, school leaders, and parents, we deliver support that is community-led, sustainable, and tailored to local needs. Our in-country staff build long-standing relationships and respond quickly and effectively to challenges. We end our support once we’ve strengthened the quality of education and helped a school thrive independently.

Sustainable School Infrastructure

We use eco-friendly ISSB methods to construct inclusive classrooms, latrines and water sources and provide furniture to create environments conducive for learning  for all children.

Teacher Training

Many teachers in the areas where we work are unqualified volunteers and we provide basic teacher training to improve the quality of education at rural schools.

Literacy

We promote a love of reading and improve literacy through phonics and library training, provision of story books, and literacy activities.

Nursery Education

We promote Early Childhood Development by helping schools to establish nurseries and lay strong foundations for lifelong learning.

Girls’ Education & Advocacy

We empower girls to stay in school, while engaging boys and communities to break the stigma of menstruation.

Livelihoods

We provide microfinance training and establish school farms, to help parents support their children’s education.
