Imagine a form of education that helps you transform your ideas, gifts, skills and knowledge from ‘what if it can happen’ to ‘why not let’s make it happen’ – that’s Prikkle Academy.
We open the doors of autonomy, creativity, trust, and collaboration in education – learning and doing – for young people to flourish at their pace and thrive in the world of work.

Our Vision
At Prikkle Academy, we envision an Africa where grassroots youths are community builders, valued by everybody and can play a critical role in national development.
Our Mission
We establish creative hubs with grassroot youths where they discover their gifts, collaborate and create tangible community solutions through their own learning, both peer to peer and virtual.
Our Approach
Through asset-based and design thinking training, we help youths uncover their strengths, community assets, and vision while mobilizing local and global resources to solve social problems.
Since 2016
We have directly inspired 2000+ children and youths through alternative education to create innovative solutions to community problems using personal, relevant, tailored and anticipated learning.
