Apprendre les techniques agiles de leapfrogging

Every year, over 10 million young Africans struggle to enter local job markets. Less than 30% secure decent employment. The rest face unemployment, precarious informal jobs, or migration. Even those fortunate enough to attend school—graduating high school, earning a B.A., or pursuing one or two Master's degrees—often end up with a ‘PhD’ in survival tactics.

On top of that, the Sahel faces critical development challenges due to acute climate vulnerability and rapid urbanization. Temperatures are rising 1.5 times faster than the global average, with a country such as Mali ranking 166th out of 181 countries in climate change readiness.

Kabakoo Academies tackles these challenges head-on. We offer a fresh, innovative approach to education and skill-building that works.

We design, build, and scale livelihood innovations by leveraging emerging tech and indigenous knowledges. Furthermore, we emphasize creative, project-based learning and integrate local knowledge to ensure our learners and alumni achieve real-world success.

#BlendedLearning

Our learners enjoy online learning through our AI-powered app, with our network of professionals, paired with real-life projects to make it collaborative and experiential.

#HighdigenousTech

Learners discover how to fuse high-tech and local indigenous knowledges to ensure the acquisition of locally relevant skills.

#Mindsetshifting

By challenging fixed mindsets and promoting a growth mindset, we enable learners to envision and pursue broader possibilities for their lives.

Our Diverse Team : Experience-Driven Innovation

At Kabakoo Academies, our diverse team of 10 African nationalities is our foundation. With over 90% of our members, including founders Yannick Kemayou and Michele Traore, having faced the same challenges as our learners, we bring personal experience to our mission.

We blend this lived experience with technical expertise and deep local insights to deliver transformative, relevant uspkilling solutions to young people across the Sahel region.
