Jamie na Jane Jamieson walianzisha SENT miaka kadhaa baada ya kurudi kutoka Spell wanaoishi katika Zambia. Later SENT became SENTAfrica.

Mara ya kwanza, tulikuwa utendaji kazi katika miradi ndogo katika Zambia, Ethiopia and Malawi. Tangu 2012 tumekuwa na kufanya kazi tu nchini Malawi.

SENTAfrica is a registered charity in the UK. The primary purpose of SENTAfrica is to fund the construction of a local non-governmental organisation (NGO) katika Malawi. This NGO is legally registered in Malawi under the name of Livingway Education. The construction phase will include setting up two separate income streams (mgeni nyumba na nyundo kinu) so that funding local community development can be made from the resources of Livingway Education.

The projects Livingway Education will be carrying out will depend on the success of the two income generating projects. The main idea will be to carry out skill-sharing exercises in agriculture, health and education. Individuals with skills, uzoefu na uwezo kuthibitika kuwa kuajiriwa na kupitisha wanachojua kwa wale ambao wangefaidika katika jamii.

Katika mwaka wa kwanza wa shughuli, LIVINGWAY ELIMU tu alifanya 20% of its operating costs. In the second year that rose to 60%. We are expecting that this will rise again in the year 2018-2019. There are still financial challenges to face. The installation of electricity could cost up to £10,000 and LIVINGWAY EDUCATION needs to find around £1000 to pay the shipping costs of tools and equipment early in 2020.

The process of becoming a self-reliant organisation is still ongoing but there is sufficient evidence from the financial figures to show that this will soon become a reality. A report will soon be available.
