Our mission is to challenge poverty and inequality by expanding access to, and improving the quality of, education and training for communities affected by conflict, displacement, neglect, or discrimination in Eastern and Horn of Africa.

Windle Trust International works with people in East Africa and the Horn of Africa. Our programmes span Sudan and South Sudan, and we have sister trusts in Kenya, Uganda and Somalia. Across Windle Trust International we work with internally displaced people and refugees from countries like Eritrea, Ethiopia, and central African countries like the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Our strategy and programmes aim to improve the quality of education whilst also increasing inclusive and equitable access for otherwise marginalised groups. This involves developing professional training provision as well as offering scholarships at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. WTI are proud to be able to collaborate with partners such as DAFI and the Commonwealth Scholarships Commission to support scholarship provision in Africa and in the UK. Beyond this, WTI have particular focuses on girls’ education and English language training, whilst also targeting youth skills development, the expansion of alternative education programmes, and the provision of education in emergencies.
