20 Volunteers Needed: It’s Easy to Apply!
Deadline: 29/11/2019, Apply by sending us a message
We have talked about Miklah (formerly ‘The Complete You Ministry’) for long and we have a good guess that you already know about us. However, in case you really don’t know what we are up to, let us clear that out; Miklah is a technology-driven Christian-based not-for-profit company that is championing government, Africa, and the world’s efforts to harness demographic dividend through our practical education, health, entrepreneurship, mentorship and SWAPafrica services.
According to Uganda national policies (for example, NDP II and Vision 2040), AU’s ‘The Africa We Want’ of 2063 and the UN Global agenda of 2030, young people constitute significant portions of nations’ populations and leaving them behind in any form of development is dangerous, not only to them, but to everyone else.
In Uganda, more than 78% and 52% of the country’s population are below 30 and 15 years respectively. These young people have issues in important sectors of education, health, governance, entrepreneurship and general life growth and development. If these young people are to be transformed into fully active and participating citizens leading Uganda Vision 2040 and general global socioeconomic transformation, solutions need to be designed and address young people’s major challenges.
Miklah champions government and global efforts to harness demographic dividend through our disruptive, innovative and sustainable initiatives: life and health, sacred entrepreneurship, SWAPafrica, Yapheh Salons and the biggest blog in town, www.miklahlife.com. For more about young people’s challenges and how our solutions address them, read this.

We teach young people to start businesses that address sustainable development goals and also help businesses to incorporate sustainable development goals into their businesses.
