Ranena Junior Secondary School, Kakelo Dudi.

Dudi Development Program (DDP), in partnership with WHH, established a fully operational modern learning facility to support both students and the surrounding community. The school was equipped with six modern classrooms, a state-of-the-art information resource center, sports and recreational facilities, uniforms for primary and junior secondary students, teachers’ accommodation, renovated school latrines, and essential learning materials. DDP further enhanced educational opportunities by providing access to a computer lab with 24 computers, internet services, and qualified instructors for digital literacy training. To promote equal access to clean water and sanitation, DDP installed two 10,000-litre rainwater harvesting tanks, ensuring water availability for both students and community members during dry seasons.

To safeguard the learning environment, DDP fenced the school compound, established a gated entrance with a watchman’s office, and installed electric sockets and lights in classrooms. Strategically placed solar-powered security lights were also installed to ensure nighttime safety during power outages. However, due to the increasing demand for digital literacy among students and the community, DDP plans to equip the resource center with solar power to prevent disruptions caused by prolonged blackouts or low voltage, ensuring uninterrupted access to education and training.

This initiative highlights DDP's commitment to inclusive education, community development, and resilience-building through sustainable resource management.
