Three Pillars of Work
CodeCompass Foundation operates across three interconnected areas, each designed to reach learners at different stages and in different environments. Together, they form a comprehensive ecosystem of technology education and leadership development.
Community Coding Programmes
Our flagship community programmes offer free, hands-on training in Scratch programming, robotics, basic computer skills, and an introduction to AI. These programmes are open to all young people in the community, with a special emphasis on encouraging girls to participate. Sessions are practical, project-based, and designed to spark genuine curiosity about technology.
School Outreach
We visit low-resource schools across Uganda to train both students and teachers, introducing coding and robotics into environments where these subjects are rarely taught. Our outreach teams bring equipment, curriculum, and expertise directly to schools that need it most, helping to embed technology education into the fabric of local learning.
Mentorship and Leadership Pipeline
We build a community of young leaders who become mentors and tech ambassadors within their own schools and communities. Graduates of our programmes return as volunteers, teaching younger students and reinforcing the idea that leadership in technology is accessible to everyone. This peer-to-peer model is one of our most powerful tools for sustainable impact.

Expanding Impact Through Global Experience
CodeCompass Foundation's reach extends well beyond Mbuya. Through work with UN Women under the African Girls Can Code Initiative (AGCCI), our founder has trained and mentored girls across Uganda — including in Lira, Moroto, Jinja, and Fort Portal — bringing technology education to regions that are often overlooked.
The African Girls Can Code Initiative
AGCCI is a continental initiative that brings together governments, civil society, and the private sector to promote digital literacy and coding among African girls. Our involvement with this initiative has allowed us to scale our methodology, share best practices, and reach learners in some of Uganda’s most remote communities.
This global connection also strengthens our credibility and opens doors to further partnerships, funding, and collaboration opportunities that benefit every learner we serve.
