Electric boda-bodas

Felix Muchiri of Green Hub East Africa discusses the benefits of boda-bodas that are not powered by petrol engines in a city where climate change impacts can be intense. 'We envision a time when the skies in Kampala can just be blue,' he says. Felix is a mechatronics and electronics engineer, and a passionate advocate for electric boda-bodas as one way of creating a sustainable, climate friendly transportation system in Uganda and East Africa.

Felix also describes Green Hub East Africa's partnership with an innovative programme designed to give women access to careers as riders of electric boda-bodas, and the economic empowerment it provides. It's called the Women on Wheels project.
