Are you an established NGO or social enterprise working in Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania? Do you have a proven solution that advances the economic resilience of women working in rural settings? Apply for Scale Accelerator 2025 and get fully-funded consultancy support to help you expand your impact.
.
Women engaging in rural-based economic activities across East Africa face significant systemic barriers – limited access to resources, precarious employment, and societal discrimination—that hinder their economic potential and perpetuate cycles of inequality.
.
To tackle these challenges, Scale Accelerator will support established nonprofits in Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania to scale proven solutions that strengthen the economic resilience of women working in rural sectors. The program offers fully-funded consultancy and training to help organizations develop the strategies and skills to scale sustainably and create lasting change.

Program Routes
Participants can take part in either one of two fully-funded program routes:
- Expert Consultancy: Up to 2 years of tailored consultancy for a select group of NGOs with a proven solution that has high potential to scale. The team will work collaboratively with you, providing technical assistance to help you figure out how to achieve scale.
