Bavubuka Foundation reachout to Stand Tall Education Network

During the months of  October & November 2011, a team of young leaders from Bavubuka Foundation will be reaching out to Stand Tall Primary School Project to share skills with Stand Tall Education Network students. 

Children at Stand Tall Education Centre.

Stand Tall Education Network is a non-profit organization composed of a group of educators and social entrepreneurs from Uganda and Canada that have come together through common goals and shared beliefs regarding education. We believe that the most effective education is one that trains young minds to think ‘out of the box’, make choices, and ask questions – necessary qualities for successful leadership and innovation. Our approach follows a style of teaching that is referred to as ‘child centered learning’ which has been widely embraced in the West. It involves interaction between student and teacher rather than the traditional lecture and listen approach. 


This Opportunity was brought forward by Nicole  Schouela who is the acting as the coordinator between the Vancouver and Ugandan Teams as well as the president of the Canadian Board of Directors for the network.
