How it Started

TechLEAD@VUCA was founded in 2024 when Associate Professor Vicente Reyes, Jr. of the University of Bristol received a grant from the Government of the United Kingdom to address food insecurity and low attendance among Philippine public schools.

How We're Funded

TechLEAD@VUCA is 100% funded via grants from the Government of the United Kingdom. No other sources of funding currently apply.

The Progress So Far

The product is currently at Technology Readiness Level 3. We are testing its proof-of-concept by deploying it in partner public schools.
