Begins where intention meets action
At Aksantys, our projects are more than plans on paper — they are lived experiences, learning journeys, and collective achievements.
In this section, you’ll find highlights from our trainings, mobilities, and educational activities across Europe and Sub-Saharan Africa, showing how our mission comes to life through real stories and measurable results.
Aksantys Signs Memorandum of Understanding with University Omnia Omnibus
We are pleased to announce that on April 18th, Aksantys signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the University Omnia Omnibus, based in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo.
This strategic partnership marks a significant step forward in our commitment to fostering sustainable employment and entrepreneurship through higher education. The MoU outlines a collaborative framework between Aksantys and the University Omnia Omnibus to develop and implement innovative educational responses tailored to today’s evolving job market.
As part of this collaboration, both institutions will engage in joint projects and academic initiatives. One of the key components of the partnership includes the integration of student interns into Aksantys' ongoing operations. These internships are designed to provide students with hands-on experience, mentorship, and the opportunity to apply new skills that enhance their academic and professional development.
We are excited about the potential of this partnership to positively impact students’ career readiness and contribute to a stronger, more resilient local workforce.
