Do you have an old computer or laptop that still works or is repairable that your just not sure what to do with? Why not give Camara a call!

Camara operates as a social enterprise and operates in two distinct business lines: ‘Education Delivery’ and ‘Computer Reuse’.

Camara take in used computers from Irish companies and individuals, wipe their hard drives of data (in line with US Department of Defense standards), refurbish and load them with educational software. They are then set up as Learning Centres in schools in both Africa and Ireland.

The programme also trains teachers to use these computers as tools to improve the delivery of education to their students.

They produce computer training and educational multimedia materials for use by teachers and children.

Where do Camara Work?

They work in seven African countries – Zambia, Ethiopia, Rwanda, Kenya, Lesotho, Tanzania, and Uganda. They have set up local Technology Hubs that act as partners in delivering the Camara educational model directly to schools.

Camara’s European headquarters is in the Digital Hub, Dublin and our African headquarters is in Kampala, Uganda.
