ToroDev engages in community mobilization activities to freely access equal development opportunities, including gender-sensitive empowerment for maximum resources utilization targeted to more wealth creation. This will eventually lead to poverty eradication in the local community. ToroDev promotes innovation and entrepreneurship skills training and policy research activities to understand the
role of both traditional and modern Information & Communication Technologies (ICTs) in accelerating sustainable socio-economic and political development of the poorer and disadvantaged groups of the population. Currently, ToroDev's training, research, advocacy for democratic practices and consultancy activities are concentrated in the rural Rwenzori region of western Uganda, with pilot projects in Kabarole, Kyenjojo, Kamwenge, Kasese, Kyegegwa and Bundibugyo districts. Since her inception in December 2005, the founders and staff of ToroDev have dedicated themselves to advancing the importance and applicability of ICT skills and services to the rural people. The emphasis is put on how the people in the community can exploit services and opportunities provided by ICT tools and equipment to inform and generate knowledge for demanding accountability form their leaders, create wealth by identifying employable opportunities, small business enterprises (SMEs) start -ups in the agribusiness and other service sectors.
