Soaring above the lush landscapes between Kinyamaseke Market Place and Bukangara, this drone video offers a unique and inspiring glimpse of the Abexinah Vocational Training & Education Centre (AVTEC)—a beacon of hope and empowerment in western Uganda.
Set against a backdrop of green hills, grey & red clay earth, and winding village paths, AVTEC sits right along the Kasese-Bwera-Mpondwe Road, as a vibrant hub of learning and transformation. The aerial footage captures not only the layout of the center and surrounding community but also the incredible beauty of rural Uganda—an often-overlooked region filled with potential.
From this elevated view, you’ll see classrooms, including the Carpentry workshop, ICT (Computer) Training Centre, the Administration Building, Furniture Sales Tent, and open fields where students gather to gain hands-on skills in agriculture, tailoring, carpentry, and more. You'll also catch sight of the neighboring farms, homesteads, & the foothills of the Rwenzori Mountains that stand between Uganda & the DCR (Congo).
This video isn't just a tour—it’s a story. A story of grassroots development, resilience, and the power of education to change lives. Whether you're a supporter, visitor, or someone passionate about vocational training in Africa, this short aerial journey reminds us what’s possible when communities invest in their own future.
