Africa Development Corps (ADC) Driver Job Vacancy in Uganda

focuses upon book distribution, library
construction and teacher training in rural areas. The program aims to
facilitate pupil’s transition from learning in local languages to learning in
English. We do this, firstly and foremost, by providing new English textbooks
received from donors to schools throughout Uganda. Also, we aim to foster a
culture of reading in individual villages and communities, as well as train
teachers on how to establish and run school libraries.
