A major focus of the report is Yangoโ€™s investment in STEM education and digital skills training, implemented through 4 flagship initiatives that equip young people with the capabilities needed in fast-growing digital economies. The first of these initiatives is the Yango Fellowship, launched in Zambia to support outstanding STEM students with full financial assistance, mentorship, and practical workshops. The Fellowship expanded to Cรดte dโ€™Ivoire in early 2025 and was further expanded to include Ghana, Mozambique, Ethiopia and Senegal, opening new pathways for young innovators. Alongside the Fellowship, Yango has strengthened hands-on learning through mobility and smart-city hackathons, which brought together more than 800 participants across 6 African countries. These events helped learners build applied skills in data science, machine learning, and urban innovation. To broaden access to foundational digital knowledge, Yango also offered free SQL data analysis courses, completed by more than 2,000 learners in Ghana, Cรดte dโ€™Ivoire, and Zambia. These courses provided essential data literacy for careers in technology-driven sectors. In Cameroon, Yango supported the Technovation Challenge, enabling 100 girls to develop technology and entrepreneurship projects under the guidance of local mentors. The initiative reinforces Yangoโ€™s commitment to expanding opportunities for young women in STEM. Together, these programs illustrate Yangoโ€™s long-term vision to help prepare young people across Africa to participate in and shape the digital cities of tomorrow.

Yango prioritizes the safety of the Zambian community and has over the years invested in cutting edge technology, training and other initiatives aimed to support this cause.
