I would like to join Catalyst Now because I believe that the complex challenges facing our communities (including weak governance, declining civic participation, climate vulnerability, and inequality) cannot be solved by individual organizations working alone. They require collective action, shared learning, and cross-sector collaboration. Through Youth for Integrity Building (YIB), I have worked alongside young people, communities, civil society organizations, and public institutions to strengthen integrity, accountability, ethical leadership, and meaningful youth participation. This experience has reinforced my belief that lasting change happens when diverse actors come together around a shared purpose.
Joining Catalyst Now would provide an opportunity to connect with a global community of changemakers, exchange innovative approaches, build strategic partnerships, and contribute practical insights from grassroots work in Kenya. At the same time, I hope to learn from others who are advancing systems change in different contexts and apply those lessons to strengthen our work. I see Catalyst Now not only as a network but as a movement that aligns with my values of collaboration, inclusion, integrity, and sustainable impact. I am eager to both contribute to and learn from this community as we work collectively to accelerate progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals.

We assembled 23 years career experience into a social innovation titled Traditional Artisans inclusion which we wish to scale across Africa. We see Catalyst 2030 as a collaborative global platform from where we can build partnership, networking, collaboration for information sharing, knowledge building, technical and financial support required to scale the innovation.
The Traditional Artisan Inclusion model (TA – I model)
1. The targeted development problem
We are addressing industry and market exclusion leading to extreme poverty among traditional artisans in Africa who have artisan heritage as the only resource. Due to the neglect of the sector in modern capacity development investment, the persisting traditional artisans are remote rural and urban slum women and youth, indigenous people, the elderly, the chronically sick, persons with disabilities and the displaced who lack alternative source of income. Their ancient designs haven’t been consolidated as a distinct product line to generate its own relevant market in museums, research and cultural centers and streamline stages of crafting evolution, creating story diversity and increased market value. Due to their unique limitations of being generally illiterate, digitally excluded, physically and technically incapacitated, they are left out of the existing modern capacity development investment, elitist training models and the entire growth of the sector which now globally stands at the value of US$ 500 billion (2020) and growing at 20% per year (PBP, 2021). Amidst extreme deprivation, as a last resort, they cling to their artisan heritage, seeking source of livelihood, resilience, social relevancy and therapy. They constitute the poorest production group with individuals living on less than US$ 2 a day.
In Africa, artisan practices exist in every community as a source of livelihood and a space of innovation, recreation and enhancing spiritual and social relationships. The sector is second to agriculture in providing employment and source of livelihood among people at grassroots and it has absolute advantage in reaching out and reclaiming productivity accompanied with therapy and restoration of social relevance among the most technically and physically incapacitated demographics and hence driving equity and inclusion.
In 2024 sector mapping report Uganda acknowledges that the bulk of artisan skills are trapped in informal sector (MGLSD, 2014). Globally 60% of the workforce is informal and ILO estimates 300 million people to be underserved as home workers and many of these are traditional artisans.
Using innovative tools and strategies to mitigate their unique limitations and build their capacity to meet market demands, availing their products to global markets through digital marketing solutions, traditional artisans will improve incomes and move from living on less than US$ 2 a day.
2. The targeted population category
This innovation develops artisan products to access global market for the benefit of traditional artisans who are impacted by capacity development services and the overall transformative effect of the business.
Traditional artisans are an economic category who manufacture goods using hands or simple tools individually or in small groups, relying on traditional skills and practices. Production and marketing is informal. Because the sector is relegated in investments, the persisting traditional artisans are remote rural and urban slum women and youth, indigenous people, the elderly, the chronically ill and the displaced who have limited economic alternatives and their endangered cultural materials and artisan practices are the only resources they have. There are often people in conditions of either extreme deprivation or technically and physically incapacitated that they retreat to handmade for source of livelihood, social relevance and therapy.
3. The development solution/TA – I social innovation
a) The definition
Traditional Artisan Inclusion model employs innovative tools and strategies to empower market excluded traditional artisans in Africa to consolidate ancient and create adaptive designs and delivering products to the global market through an online marketing platform linked to partner platforms, trade fairs and agencies.
b) The core process of the model
1. Innovative training tools which are customized to unique limitations of traditional artisans, are developed and periodically reviewed
2. A network of community based TA - Inclusion facilitators, developed, grown and periodically appraised
3. Traditional artisans are mobilized and recruited pairing the elderly with the youth for intergenerational sharing
4. A catalogue and cataloguing frame which juxtaposes the ancient and adopted designs is developed and periodically updated and used in training and marketing
5. Three training modules using innovative and customized tools and focusing on consolidating ancient designs, creating adaptive designs, business and digital marketing are applied on cohorts of traditional artisans
6. Established and constantly developed and utilized an online marketing platform linked to other partner platforms, international trade fairs and agencies.
7. Craft categories with high market value including consolidated and adaptive designs are identified, production commissioned and products availed to global market through online marketing platform linked to partner platforms, international trade fairs and agencies.
8. Spontaneous, dramatic, ongoing and informal sharing of skills that develop into a chain training system is encouraged through awards
c) The unique aspects of the model
1. Recognizing and targeting traditional artisans as a distinct production group
2. Innovative tools and strategies that are customized to the unique capacity, physical, technical and contextual limitations of traditional artisans
3. The strategy of pairing the elderly and the youth for intergenerational sharing of skills, knowledge, capabilities and perspectives
4. Encouraging ongoing, dramatic and spontaneous sharing of skills developing into a chain training system
5. Balancing sourcing of products for marketing with capacity development of the makers which is informed by the robust market and product research
6. Consolidating ancient designs into a distinct product line and create its relevant market in museums, cultural and research centers
4. The theory of change of TA – I model
Preconditions
1. Applying innovative strategies of mobilizing and constantly engaging traditional artisans where the elderly are paired with youth.
2. Recruiting, training, inducting, periodically appraising and constantly engaging community based TA Inclusion facilitators
3. Applying 3 module customized capacity development to traditional artisans using innovative tools on consolidating ancient designs, adapting to changing lifestyle, business enterprise building and digital marketing skills
4. Developing and constantly updating master catalogue and cataloguing frame and utilizing in training and marketing.
5. Established and constantly developed and utilizing online marketing platform linked to partner platforms, international trade fairs and agencies
6. Ongoing encouragement of dramatic and spontaneous sharing of skills developing into a chain training system
Required inputs to realize the preconditions include funding inform of grants, and equity and support in form of technical assistance, information and networking.
Outputs
1. Established, constantly reviewed and applied innovative and customized capacity development tools and strategies
2. Traditional artisans who include the elderly paired with youth, trained in three modules
3. Established, periodically updated and constantly utilized in training and marketing a master catalogue and cataloguing frame
4. Established, utilized and constantly developing online marketing platform
5. Functioning partnerships with other online marketing platforms, international trade fairs and agencies
6. Market ready products in form of ancient consolidated and modern adapted designs
7. Sales and revenues on products of traditional artisans from international marketing and trading activities.
Outcomes
After undergoing a complete process of capacity development activities, traditional artisans who include the elderly paired with youth, are increasingly consolidating ancient designs into a distinct product line and availing products to newly developed specific relevant market in museums, culture and research centers. They are also increasingly adapting design skills to changing lifestyles and producing adapted styles. They are adapting technology enabled marketing and accessing the global craft market. They are managing business relationships with value chain partners and building viable micro artisan enterprises which are attracting further training, business financing, capital investments and marketing partnerships from ecosystem institutions. Ancient and adaptive designs are emerging as clear separate product categories, streamlining evolutionary stages in crafting, creating diversity of themes and stories and uses with associated increased market value.
Long-term outcomes
Traditional artisans in Africa who include the elderly and the youth competitively accessing global craft market and effectively integrated in capacity development programing and mainstream creative manufacturing sector and creating jobs across the value chain.
Impact
Traditional artisans in Africa who include the elderly and youth and predominantly of female gender increase incomes, improve livelihood and welfare and moving from living on less than US$ 2 a day per individual.
Key assumptions
1. The economic, political, social, legal and health environment in targeted countries in Africa remain conducive
2. The most effective way of creating incomes among traditional artisans in Africa, who have artisan practices as the only resource is to improve capacity to access market
3. Consolidating ancient designs into a product line instead of only fusion of ancient and adaptive aspects, can diversify market and increase benefits to traditional artisans
4. The employed innovative mobilization and training strategies to traditional artisans, can mitigate their unique limitations and effectively boost their capacity.
5. The traditional artisans will access sufficient internet and power for minimum required digital operations
The theory of change TA Inclusion model
5. Pathways and vision of scale
Every community in Africa has craft practices and conditions of neglect of the sector are also common. The global craft market is potentially abundant. We plan to reach 2 million artisans, transform 1.5 million artisans into competitive market producers, 1.5 million active users of digital marketing platform, create 3 million jobs and increase family incomes by 90% in 5 years after pilot. We shall scale by hybrid model. Through partnership and collaborations and leveraging the ecosystem of social impact, we shall increase our global crafts market share and African countries where we develop makers, prioritizing where the sector is least developed. Expand by re-investing earnings and attracting impact public funding and institutionally engaging in collaborations, joint venture and franchise arrangements. While for profit can handle both capacity development and trading, the nonprofits handles capacity development and links producers to for profits to advance with trading. We are already a member of Catalyst 2030, a global collaborative platform of 3,000 organizations. We use this and other networks to establish collaborations and partnerships around scaling this innovation.
I want to contribute to the development and advancement of global mental health and youth engagement in policymaking.

1. Driving Systemic Change for Smallholder Farmers & Climate Action
Through my work with Bunyala Agri Climate Action Impact Solutions, I have seen firsthand the challenges that smallholder farmers and fisher communities face—climate change, limited market access, high input costs, and a lack of sustainable solutions. By leveraging innovative approaches such as Black Soldier Fly (BSF) feed production, renewable energy solutions, and digital skills training, I aim to scale sustainable and climate-smart agricultural practices that empower these communities.

I hope to share my experience and encounters that I have had as well as get engagement with others.
1. Catalyst 2030 is a recognized platform wherein people network globally, as such I feel that here I can foster strong cooperation and collaboration with other people across the world.
2. I also believe that by learning from best practices one can evenly improve his/her service delivery, and my optimism is that there is no better platform to achieve this than catalyst 2030.
3. I also hope that this experiences I will be exposed to in catalyst 2030 will help in widening my horizon as far as community work and development is concern.
I hope to contribute my knowledge and experience working with young women and girls through the Liberian youth and civil society service. I hope to receive knowledge and development trainings from the catalyst community.
More focused working groups. We are in education and every time we feel we are linking with a group, it is at a completely different level to what we are targeting. Also find that often some of the presentations and events are not communicated correctly and we sign up for events that are not related to our field of expertise. This makes us reluctant to join as time is limited.

As a Co-Founder and Executive Director of Vibrant Voices Village Community Based Organization My motivation to be part of Catalyst 2030 stems from a deep commitment to sustainable development and a desire to contribute to systemic change on a global scale. Catalyst 2030 represents a unique platform where like-minded individuals and organizations collaborate to accelerate progress towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Being a part of this movement aligns perfectly with my passion for driving social impact and my experience in advocating for sustainable solutions in communities.
As someone deeply involved in grassroots initiatives, particularly in water efficiency and community development projects, I have witnessed firsthand the transformative power of collective action. Catalyst 2030 offers an opportunity to amplify these efforts by connecting with a global network of changemakers, sharing knowledge, and learning from innovative approaches across different sectors.
I am particularly motivated by the chance to work alongside pioneers in social entrepreneurship and sustainable development, as this collaboration can lead to innovative solutions that address complex global challenges. Being part of Catalyst 2030 would not only enhance my capacity to effect change but also allow me to contribute my insights and experiences to a broader conversation, ultimately helping to shape a more inclusive and sustainable future for all.
Joining Catalyst 2030 is not just an opportunity to be part of a global movement; it’s a commitment to pushing boundaries, challenging the status quo, and working tirelessly to achieve a world where the SDGs are not just aspirations but realities.
I hope to contribute my deep civic leadership, voluntarism and movement building skills. I see it as a force to resource mobilization and team buliding.
I hope to connect with like minds, contribute by writing meeting notes, managing our social media Community, and serving as a project manager. What I am looking for is mentors who will guide me towards making my NGO to be established and sustainable, and help me get grants and funding for my projects. And also to help me build a website for my NGO.
