They Did It!
Ziwa
“For potential growth and impact, you need to focus on creating profound social impressions and for this you need to find the right channel through which you can induce your efforts. I am proud to witness myself becoming the true social impact achiever, as well as an environmentalist, thanks to GBE. Even if I am not 5 ft tall, I believe the sky is the limit! “
Jerome
“When I decided to make the big leap from internal auditing in big corp to operational activities in a small African business, I could not say I was 100% convinced of making the right choice. Now I would say it a hundred times with no hesitation! There is no combination of words I can think of to express what working in such constructive environment with such people has brought me. I strongly believe in GBE’s future and hope my modest input has been but valuable up to now.”
Students consulting for Development (SCD) Team
“Not only did we spend six wonderful months working hard with GBE on the field, but we also, during half a year, sturdily learn about ourselves, make new career plans, and new friends! Among the few life changing experiences you may have on the road, our stay in Kampala was definitely one of them. When the four of us came back home, we all walked in the business school corridors with “social business” in the head and the “pearl of Africa” in the heart.”
Emmy
“Through my internship with GBE I had the opportunity to step out of my comfort zone linguistically, personally and professionally. One of the aspects about my internship that I most appreciated was the fact that I developed my interpersonal skills, working and interacting with individuals from different international backgrounds, not forgetting a great team at GBE that made me feel at home. I have learned a lot about the social enterprise sector these past couple of months and hope to continue to gain even deeper experience in the future.”
Maja
“After just three months at Green Bio Energy, I learnt more than I thought possible from any one experience! Not only did I gain an understanding of the dynamic social structure and market in Kampala, but also how equally challenging and rewarding it is to work for a social enterprise in the renewable energy sector in Uganda. I am honoured and proud for the opportunity I had to work alongside such a dedicated and passionate team, I can’t describe how valuable my time with Green Bio Energy was to my career, and how much it meant to me personally. The future is bright because of the continuous effort and commitment of groups like Green Bio Energy!”
Lily
“It was an absolute pleasure to join the GBE team as a social impact fellow over the summer months. The experience provided me with an invaluable insight into the green social enterprise community in Uganda. I had the chance to delve into a range of fields from behavioural economics to innovative energy technologies. It was an honour to work alongside such a diverse group of driven, savvy, and supportive colleagues. At GBE you can be confident that your skills will be well utilised and that you will leave with a more complete understanding of sustainable entrepreneurship! “
Ruhina
“The opportunity to intern at Green Bio Energy for my master’s degree in SME management has been by far one of the most fulfilling experiences of my life. Fulfilling because, other than working for a social enterprise with such noble goals, I was also given the chance to build on my skills through the wide range of tasks I was assigned. I am ever so grateful for this experience and being able to get to know and work with such an amazing team!”
Giovanna
“Doing an internship at GBE for the past three months was one of the best experiences I ever encountered. I gained a lot of skills and knowledge about sustainable energy development, business administration and social work. The internship gave me an opportunity to discover what I wanted to try out for my job in the future. Moreover, all my co-workers were really kind and friendly.”
