Building Tomorrow: The Janice D Steenblik Learning Centre

In the heart of Uganda's Kibaale District, a transformative vision is taking shape. The Janice D Steenblik Learning Centre (JDSLC) represents more than just a school—it embodies hope, innovation, and the enduring power of education to change lives.

Under the leadership of Peter Isingoma, the 2024 JDSMF Fellow and veteran educator, this groundbreaking project will serve students from Pre-K through Grade 8 in rural communities where educational opportunities are scarce. In collaboration with phi architecture φ, an international design practice known for sustainable community projects, the JDSLC combines innovative architectural design with forward-thinking educational practices.

Named in memory of Janice D Steenblik, whose passion for education and commitment to serving others continues to inspire, the Learning Centre will feature naturally ventilated classrooms, integrated technology spaces, and community gathering areas. Through sustainable design elements including solar power, rainwater harvesting, and flexible learning spaces, the JDSLC will serve as a model for educational facilities in developing regions.

This partnership between Peter Isingoma, phi architecture, and the Janice D Steenblik Memorial Foundation demonstrates the power of international collaboration in creating lasting educational opportunities. Join us in building not just a school, but a brighter future for the children of Kibaale.
