About us

Transforming Youth Employment and Economic Development

The Africa University Incubator Ecosystem (UIE) is the flagship project of the African Youth Diaspora Organization (AYDO) in collaboration with the Commonwealth Students Association (CSA). We aim to carry out the UIE in all 54 African countries in the next 10 years to address Pan African youth unemployment and solve community economic development issues

The Africa University Incubator Ecosystem (UIE) is the brainchild of visionary leaders who recognized the immense potential of African youth in driving innovation and economic growth. It was founded with the firm belief that empowering young entrepreneurs and providing them with the necessary resources and support can lead to transformative change in communities across the continent. The UIE was born out of a collective desire to address Pan African youth unemployment and foster community economic development.
