Through partnerships with organisations such as the UNHCR and World University Services Canada (WUSC), WIU is proud to offer scholarships at all levels of education. Highlights include facilitation of the DAFI and WUSC programmes, which allow refugee students to seek graduate and post-graduate opportunities in both East Africa and abroad. Additionally, WIU offers scholarships to Persons With Special Needs (PSNs) and Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVCs).

WIU manages early childhood development centres, primary and secondary schools, which includes hiring and training teachers, construction of classroom blocks, the provision of scholastic materials, and day to day functionality of the schools.

WIU operates a large network of Vocational Training Centres (VTC) which offer training for disciplines such as motor vehicle construction, ICT, electrical engineering, and building and construction. Learners are educated on business skills and provided with start-up kits to enable them to create their own enterprises.

Through support of various partners, including UNHCR, UNICEF, Education Cannot Wait, and Brightwell Supporting Refugees, WIU continues to build classrooms, auxiliary buildings, latrine stances and laboratories. Building these physical structures is a major key to providing optimal learning environment for the communities WIU supports. WIU has championed innovative and low cost school infrastructure to provide safe and enabling learning environments. Additionally, WIU constructs teachers’ accommodation.
