About KwaleHub
Empowering youth aged 16-34 through ICT and innovation to bridge the digital divide and drive sustainable development in Kwale County, Kenya.
Our Story
Kwale Tech Hub is a youth-centered innovation and skills development hub based in Kwale County, Kenya. Established to bridge the digital divide, we empower young people aged 16–34 from rural and underserved communities through Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and innovation.
In a region where 47.4% of the population lives below the poverty line and youth unemployment exceeds 20% (Kenya Census 2019), we believe that technology can drive social equity, economic inclusion, and sustainable development.
Our vision is a future where youth are architects of their own destiny — catalyzing economic growth, fostering resilience, and leading positive change across Kwale and beyond.
