We’re seeing even more development from our solar electrification engineering training programme in partnership with Barefoot College International In Kedougou, southeast Senegal, a cohort of 9 newly trained Solar Mamas have graduated from the educational course. For 5 months, they went through a comprehensive training programme in engineering, environmental sustainability, health education, entrepreneurship and financial literacy, paving the way for long-term community development. Empowered by this programme, these women from 15 villages in the region have been able to electrify over 750 homes, bringing sustainable energy solutions to rural areas. The impact of the programme stretches even beyond our own reach, as the graduates continue to establish their own workshops and vocational training and improve the quality of life for their communities. Congratulations to the Kedougou cohort!

2,500 kits promised and now 2,500 kits delivered through our Beyond Boundaries Initiative! 🏏 We are delighted to fulfil the promise we made during the 2023 International Cricket Council Cricket World Cup, where we pledged 10 kits for every 100 runs scored in each match, by delivering 2,500 cricket kits to grassroots organisations across the globe. We reached this major milestone by delivering our tenth repurposed shipping container in the initiative to Namibia yesterday, as part of our ambition to make cricket more accessible to everyone. The latest container, which will act as a pavilion and kit store at the Kuisebmund Stadium Complex in Walvis Bay, arrived at its new home having been transported nearly 2,000 km from Johannesburg, South Africa, using our end-to-end smart logistics capabilities. The kits and container will benefit Cricket Namibia and mark the initiative’s continued support for the grassroots game in the wider sub-Saharan Africa region. Through the ten containers to date, we have now used our global network of smart logistics solutions to deliver kits and improved accessibility to cricketers in India, South Africa, Barbados, the United States, the UAE and Namibia. Despite reaching this landmark moment, the work doesn’t stop! We look forward to continuing the Beyond Boundaries Initiative mission of Changing What’s Possible in cricket around the world. #SmartLogisticsBeyondBoundaries
