About
Moja
What Sets Us Apart
Moja is a social design organisation that empowers the next generation of change-makers to redesign futures through Education, Entrepreneurship & Wellbeing. Our vision is to become a catalyst of sustainable socio-economic change and transformative impact.
Our Pillars
Moja operates at the intersection of three powerful pillars: Education, Wellbeing, and Entrepreneurship. This trifecta forms the foundation of our holistic approach to sustainable empowerment of women and children in sub-Saharan Africa.
Empower
'Empower' is our comprehensive education pillar, dedicated to empowering future leaders with the skills they needs to thrive in the twenty first century. Students are immersed in diverse learning landscapes, blending essential academic knowledge with digital literacy and creative design thinking. 'Empower' is focused on building strong foundations in critical thinking, curiosity, and a passion for lifelong learning.
Elevate
'Elevate' embodies Moja's comprehensive commitment to enhancing the overall wellbeing of women and children in our programs. It encompasses a holistic approach to mental, emotional, and physical health, emphasizing mindfulness, nutritious eating habits, and physical activities. By implementing 'Elevate, we aim to provide a nurturing environment where young girls and women can grow and thrive. Through our 'Elevate' pillar, they cultivate resilience, deepen their self-awareness, and foster a sense of inner balance.
Innovate
'Innovate' is our dynamic entrepreneurship pillar, designed to inspire and equip the next generation of business leaders and innovators. This program fosters a spirit of creativity and problem-solving, encouraging students to find African solutions to African problems. Through hands-on experience, mentorship opportunities, and exposure to real-world business challenges, Innovate prepares participants to not only enter the world of entrepreneurship but to transform it with their unique ideas and perspective of their world. Our aim is to empower young minds to create opportunities and drive positive change in their communities.
At Moja we envision a world where every stakeholder is a changemaker, interconnected in a network of mutual growth and support. Our approach is about breaking barriers, building bridges and creating an inclusive future where authentic human connection is the catalyst for lasting change.
