4 more students join the October 2025 cohort in Cameroon

Over the past two weeks, we’ve made steady progress across key areas of our project, despite disruptions caused by Cameroon’s political climate. We enrolled 4 additional participants, bringing our October 2025 cohort to 11, advanced the pre-design work on the Wandusoa Learning Ecological Centre, and joined the School Enterprise Challenge platform to strengthen our practical business education offerings.

Developments:

We expanded our October 2025 cohort to 11 participants and continued outreach to fill the remaining spots. This growth keeps us on track to welcome a full group of learners.

Activities:

The pre-design phase of the Wandusoa Learning Ecological Centre has progressed well. We’ve worked with Journeyman International and architect Cédric Delbeke to develop an eco-friendly, community-centred design. Informal discussions with local residents have provided useful input to guide the process.

We also successfully registered on the School Enterprise Challenge platform. This milestone connects our team with global resources, mentors, and fellow educators, helping us deliver hands-on entrepreneurship education.

Challenges:

The Cameroon Presidential Elections on October 12th and the delayed results created nationwide political tension. It became unsafe to gather participants or hold community meetings, so we had to pause operations. We adapted by postponing activities and shifting to one-on-one engagements where possible. Now that conditions have stabilised, we’re cautiously resuming.

Finances:

No finances were spent during this period.
