Gayaza High School in Uganda has received 20 new laptops under the Uganda Digital Acceleration Project (UDAP), in an initiative led by the Ministry of ICT and National Guidance in partnership with the National Information Technology Authority-Uganda (NITA-U).
The equipment is expected to strengthen students’ digital skills and expand access to technology-based learning. The laptops will support practical learning across different subjects, research, creative projects, coding, data analysis and problem-solving.
Speaking during the handover, State Minister for ICT and National Guidance, Joyce Nabosa Ssebugwawo, emphasised that digital literacy is no longer a luxury but a basic requirement. She also highlighted the importance of ensuring that girls and young women are included in the future of technology.
Gayaza High School Head Teacher Robinah Katongole Kizito assured the school community that every girl would benefit from the new laptops.
The initiative forms part of Uganda’s broader efforts to advance digital inclusion and equip students with skills needed to participate in an increasingly technology-driven economy.
