The International Institute for Water and Environmental Engineering in Burkina Faso (2iE), is a higher educational institute that focuses on creating graduates who can invent new things, who can build a new kind of society. It is excellent at skills matching - it teaches skills of critical importance to the continent. One third of people living in sub-Saharan Africa do not have access to clean water, while two thirds do not have access to proper sanitation. And this is evidenced by its 100% employment rate 1 year after graduating. But it goes way beyond this to create citizens who can affect change in the continent, create new forms of socially driven business and commerce. Its students are motivated to support Africa’s development – its students want to be part of Africa’s future. They come from all over the continent – from Mali, Congo, Cameroon, Gabon, Niger, Togo and increasingly from France and Canada too. It is the only African higher education institution to offer internationally accredited degrees but 98% of its graduates remain in Africa.

Teaching at 2iE gives the complete toolkit of skills and competencies but also embeds independence, problem-solving and creativity in its graduates to equipping young people to contribute to Africa’s development and supports its students to have the ability to define and create new possibilities for Africa.

How does it do this?

2iE has an innovative engineering–entrepreneurship curriculum model. It covers the highest quality training in water, sanitation and environmental engineering to build the right skills and competencies. It also provides learning experiences specifically to enable all of its graduates to create new possibilities.

In addition, 2iE work with corporate partners to set a real-life challenge for students to tackle. These corporate partners  also provide resources. Students who take these on work in groups to research, prototype and construct a business plan for a new irrigation method or nutrition product. They are allocated a coach to help them and their sponsors take many of these projects to market.

It also runs Enterprise Days, which provide the opportunity to test and show what being a social entrepreneur really means. In September 2011, students were invited to submit their ideas for social enterprises that would be financially self-sustaining, that would help to alleviate poverty and that would protect the environment. A total of 55 students did so, all of whom received expert support and coaching to develop their ideas. A final ten students entered the intensive development phase, of which five were chosen to compete in the grand final on 15 June 2012.

The competition was fierce. An insulating brick made of waste plastic competed with a paving stone made from discarded palm kernels and a water filtration system made of the sand that is so abundant in the Sahel. Each presented a ten-minute pitch to a packed auditorium and a highly experienced jury of professors and businesspeople. The judges pulled no punches – ‘I can see a major hole in your business plan,’ commented one. This rigour means that nascent enterprises are not just an educational exercise. 2iE has set up an incubator programme that helps take the most promising and most serious student enterprises to the next stage.

Kahitouo, global champion of the 2012 Berkeley Global Social Ventures competition, has an enterprise in the incubator. FasoProt aims to tackle the malnutrition so prevalent in Burkina Faso and elsewhere in sub-Saharan Africa. (26 percent of Burkinabe children under the age of 5 suffer from chronic malnutrition, contributing to an infant mortality rate of 9.3 percent.) FasoProt will use an abundant resource that is sadly neglected in Kahitouo’s opinion – highly nutritional shea caterpillars. Currently, women in rural villages discard thousands of shea caterpillars picked up in the process of collecting palm nuts for oil. Kahitouo has developed an efficient, low-cost way to turn the caterpillars into an enriched protein powder that can be used as a supplement, particularly for pregnant women, babies and young children. The potential market is huge and Kahitouo expects to reach 15,000 women in the first four years of operations. If he succeeds, he will simultaneously be tackling malnutrition and helping rural women to generate an income. The incubator offers an initial investment as well as non-financial resources in an enterprise’s founder or founders. Without this, Kahitouo would have to get a job. The entrepreneurs also receive legal, technical, managerial and research support along with help in raising funds.

There are currently three enterprises in the 2iE incubator, with three more on the way. The intention in the long term is for 2iE to retain a stake in these social businesses, that will help to generate finances for the university as well as provide inspiration and role models for future students. If 2iE and its graduates are to play the role they crave in helping to shape a proud, successful Africa, they have to be able to create new possibilities, to invent their way to a new future.

Networkers of how to save infants lives with oral rehydration are tyrned into 50000+ village para-health servants advcisng on basic helath chalenges to maternal and infant health. Later James Grant (while head of UNICEF) hears of the Bangla miracle- convinces US North East corridor to share this knowhow with all national leaders of developing countries.
