About Xavier Project

  • Xavier Project is registered as an NGO in Uganda, an International NGO in Kenya and a company and charity in UK.

  • All operations are in Kenya and Uganda, but a proportion of funding is raised in the UK.

  • Xavier Project ́s implementation model promotes building holistic partnerships with Refugee Led Organisations (RLOs) across East Africa through which we promote community-led learning, community capacity-strengthening and enterprise development.

  • We act as facilitators, supporting the RLOs to deliver education services and scale-out enterprise within their communities. We have supported over 12 RLOs in six different locations in Kenya and Uganda.

  • Through community-led solutions, we aspire to provide more refugee children with access to quality learning, delivered in environments that are safe and inclusive, and foster social, emotional and extra-curricular learning.

  • This is done through various innovative programmes such as tablet-based learning programme for primary school children, online-based learning programme for out-of-school youth or outreach programme aiming to improve the access of refugee children with disabilities to quality education.

  • Xavier Project partners with a wide range of Institutional Donors, Foundations and Trusts.

    Programme Description

  • Xavier Project is opening learning centers in Umoja and Kabiria to support the education of urban refugee youth who have missed school for prolonged periods of time.

  • This will accord them a chance to acquire equivalent certified competencies for basic education through flexible school schedules and learning approaches that match their cognitive maturity. We are therefore looking for qualified primary school teachers with the relevant experience to support this programme.
