Sustainability

The Sega Girls School is working toward becoming a full sustainable, self-supporting operation. While there are several examples of good secondary schools in Tanzania who successfully meet their running costs through school fees alone, because Sega Girls School aims to reach economically disadvantaged girls through scholarships to attend, its costs will be higher.

Strategies to Reduce Running Costs:

  • Use of solar energy
  • Borehole with our own water supply on site 
  • Food production on our own land
  • Establishment of other on and off-campus businesses such as a small conference center; computer training center; indigenous tree nursery
