About Me
Project Management Specialist | Productivity Coach | Development Researcher | Digital Platforms Enthusiast
Who am I and what I do
I am George Mwika Kayange, a certified project manager and productivity coach. I hold a PhD and professional certifications including PMP, PMI-ACP, CAPM, and Project DPro. For over 20 years, I have led development programmes across Malawi, Botswana, India, and the UK. I call myself the golden key, because I help teams and communities unlock progress they could not reach alone.
Much of my career has focused on nonprofit leadership and disability rights. I coordinated disability projects for SAFOD across 16 countries in Southern Africa. I supported national advocacy work at FEDOMA in Malawi. I also worked on child rights with Global March Against Child Labour in India. These roles shaped my commitment to equality, diversity, and inclusion.
My research looks at how assistive technology supports people with disabilities in Southern Africa. This work grew out of my PhD and led me to build the Assistive Technology Innovation Wiki, a free platform for sharing AT innovations and case studies. I have published several papers on this topic, listed on my ORCID profile.
Beyond research, I run digital platforms that give people free access to skills and knowledge. Projects101 Academy offers free project management training to those who cannot afford paid courses. First Web Foundation helps small nonprofits build their online presence. UK Study Connect supports international students with free study advice. Across all of this, my goal stays the same: to create impact beyond profit.
