Indiscriminate accumulation of material items common with Africans/Nigerians hitherto leading to household excesses that are often dilapidated over time and indiscriminately disposed improperly, causing harm to the environment. Items that could be repurposed, gifted, shared with others in need, that would mean extending item lifecycle and preservation of the planet in the long run.
We educate on material accumulation which leads to short and long term consequences of filled landfills also locally educating on indiscriminate item disposal which leads to blocked drainages, damaged roads and eventual environmental flooding. While we encourage the public to embrace goodwill, sharing and repurposing items that could have been hitherto indiscriminately disposed through our platform and also partnering, supporting other change makers doing outreaches, recycling, repurposing with received items to reach even wider households and lengthen items lifecycle.

International development decisions are often made in the Global North excluding people from the Global South. Gender, disability, race and class intersect with other factors and drive inequality. Discrimination harms women and marginalised groups, limiting their well-being, agency, access to leadership positions, assets and income and control over their own bodies. People living in poverty face complex barriers to constructing routes out of poverty. Policies are not always designed with them in mind and economic growth is not always enough.
We host a podcast to bring together practitioners, thinkers, activists to share ideas and identify entry points for practical action. We launch an online training programme for development professionals in 2024. We conduct research, deliver evidence-based policy engagement and engage with social movements striving to challenge patriarchy, enhance equity and drive improved well-being for women and men. We identify the barriers poor people face, describe them to policy makers and seek to influence policy and practice so that bottom up growth can deliver routes out of poverty for the poorest people.

The continued heavy reliance on fossil fuel powered generators in Nigeria by government institutions, businesses and households for electricity supply constitutes a major threat to the climate change plans in Nigeria. Fossil fuel generators have become the primary source of electricity for most businesses and households, as supply from the national grid remains abysmally low.
We provide plug and play solar home systems to electrify households and solve basic household energy needs. Our systems cover different needs, and all requirements of our customers can be met. From our starter model which includes two dimmable lights and a USB charging port to our most powerful solar home system which generates energy for lamps, television, fan, and refrigerator.

The world at large are suffering from a chilling surge in mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, PTSD and suicide. Underserved communities and developing nations also need help and sometimes don't have access to teachers, workshops or trainings that are inclusive and affordable, or effective and relevant. Loneliness is also a pervasive problem globally even as digital connectivity expands, leading to worsening mental health outcomes.
We want to see the mental health arena transform by helping more people integrate tools like mindfulness, meditation and stress reduction into their daily lives so they can rediscover their power and personal agency. Our programs will help create more skilled teachers where they are needed, or guides that are accessible via internet. The community that CNTRD Wellness is building for seekers and teachers will serve to nourish and support people who feel isolated or low on hope and give them tools to help themselves heal and thrive. We also plan to create scholarships and free trainings and workshops focused on the most vulnerable communities.

We address the challenges of the lack of unadulterated, gluten-free and allergy free food products in the market, seeing that there are more than 100 000 cases of gluten intolerance per year. We also address the fact that post-harvest loss and knowledge gaps on post-harvest methods exist.
We help to solve those challenges by building a holistic and inclusive African Super-foods value chain to fight food insecurity, hunger and diseases. This is done through capacity building and technical assistance, processing and value addition training as well as access to markets. We partner with community heads and women leaders to identify, profile smallholder farmers, women and youth; we train them on agri-entrepreneural skills, post-harvest methods and techniques, business, financial and marketing skills. For example, we train on different methods of extending the life of staple crops such as plantains, sweet potatoes, etc. by processing them into flours, chips, puree, boiled, fried, pastries and much more. This way we provide beneficiaries with quality education, technical support, reduce post-harvest losses and facilitate market access.

Rollr
Almost all of us wake up every morning and use chemical deodorant in plastic. Between us, we will throw away 26 million deodorants EVERY DAY. Current refillable options still force users to compromise on how they like to use or expect deodorant to work, stunting uptake and retention of customers.
Rollr's zero waste refills offer customers a way to deodorise that reduces packaging, weight and co2 by 95% compared to normal deodorants and 80% compared to any competitor. This is whilst the design of the bottle and formulation has been designed over three years with the aim of maximising uptake and retention so that people keep using Rollr forever and make the most of our refill's positive impact.

Agro Rangers address the threat of degraded soil quality to farmers' livelihoods and aims to break the cycle of poverty. We advocate for chemical-free farming practices like organic and natural farming. We've collaborated with 60 farmers, addressing the economic viability of organic farming, which requires three years to eliminate chemical residues. We've experimented with regenerative agroforestry, increasing soil organic carbon by 0.8% and generating ₹2,50,000 per year from one-acre farmland. Our project, "Sahajeevan" (Marathi for "Symbiotic"), fosters symbiotic relationships by integrating mixed fruit trees, cover crops, and efficient irrigation. Our approach enhances soil quality, biodiversity, and income diversification, making farming sustainable and resilient to climate change.

Only 5-15% of amputees in LMIC receive proper care today. Budgets are present, but old technology and business models (NGO donation) don't lead to the needed scaling, leaving the large majority stranded without a solution. Limb-loss has a severe impact on a patients life, as simple activities like walking, working, going to school, are challenging. The available solutions are not affordable, hard to access as traveling to a hospital is hard, and often of poor quality.
Ugani developed the lowest cost high-quality prosthetic on the market. By leveraging digital 3D tech, our solution is not only comfortable, it is also affordable and very quick and easy to deliver. Next to prosthetics, all types of orthotics can be made using the same workflow. The digital process allows for very quick production, and a remote assistance, vital for patients living in remote areas.

Sustainable Alternatives Hub
In Uganda, the total unemployed persons in the country is 64 percent. Given the rapid growth of the Ugandan population—three-quarters of the population are below the age of 30 years , 82% of these are unemployed . Now imagine people with disabilities , after thinking about women and girls with disabilities : People with disabilities face challenges in the labor markets. There is a substantial gap between integrating people with disabilities into the labor force and their actual participation levels. That means women with disabilities are more than twice as likely to be unemployed than are their non-disabled counterparts. The fact is that the youth are getting better educated through higher access to primary and secondary education, a stronger focus on job creation for this group of people cannot be overemphasized. But yet the strongest focus for people living with disabilities is very urgent.
Sustainable Alternatives Hub empowers unemployed youth & women living with disabilities in Uganda to solve their everyday community challenges and turn them into economic opportunities that benefit individuals, the community and the environment through incubation, investment and acceleration of social innovations in the economic development of women, green economy, waste management and digitalization.
