In 2019, David participated in financial literacy training that Centenary Bank organised in Bidibidi, one of the world's largest refugee settlements, in Northern Uganda. Today David runs a profitable business growing vegetables and selling and distributing them within the settlement. The training was part of a project that reached refugees in 9 settlements across Uganda. The initiative was backed by the European Investment Bank's Capacity Building Project for East Africa, targeting local banks and their clients and customers.
