ウガンダの低電化地域において、Arduinoベースのメイカースペース型研修が再生可能エネルギー教育の理論と実践のギャップを埋めるかを検証した。2024〜2026年の3回の研修に参加した42名の工学系参加者は満足度9.1/10、100%が推奨意向を示し、実践スキルへの自信も高かった。今後の展開として、電化指標と連動した多機関・比較研究の必要性を指摘している。
English
This study evaluates a makerspace-based training model using Arduino platforms to close the theory-practice gap in renewable energy education in Uganda. Across three cohorts (42 engineering participants, 2024-2026), satisfaction averaged 9.1/10, with 100% recommending the course and 92.8% interested in advanced training. Findings support hands-on makerspace approaches for building practical energy competencies in low-electrification contexts.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本企業・教育機関がアフリカの電化支援や人材育成事業を展開する際、実践型教育モデルの設計に示唆を与える。ただし日本のGX政策・開示制度との直接的な接点は薄い。
In the global GX context
While focused on Uganda, this case adds to global scholarship on capacity-building for energy transition, relevant to development finance and Just Transition discussions where practical skills gaps constrain renewable deployment in emerging markets.

📄 Abstract(原文)
Addressing the enduring gap between theory and practice in renewable energy education is essential to accelerating electrification in low- access regions such as Uganda, where, despite strong policy commitments (Vision 2040; National Development Plan III), national and rural electrification rates were 47% and 35%, respectively, in 2022. This study evaluated the effectiveness of a makerspace- based training model in developing practical competencies aligned with local energy needs. A longitudinal mixed- methods design was used to assess three consecutive training interventions conducted in 2024, 2025, and 2026, involving a total of 42 engineering participants. All participants completed the post- training survey and were included in the final analysis. The interventions utilised Arduino-based microcontroller platforms and open-source tools, progressing from fundamental digital applications to the control of hybrid energy systems. The survey findings showed consistently high participant satisfaction (mean score: 9.1/10) and strong perceived relevance, with the vast majority rating the training as highly relevant to the Maker Movement. Across all three cohorts, participants reported high confidence in their practical skills, with most evaluations falling within the excellent or good categories, and only a few responses indicating areas requiring further improvement. Community engagement indicators were equally encouraging: 100% of participants indicated they would recommend the course, and 92.8% expressed interest in advanced follow-up training, indicating strong acceptance of the makerspace approach and its potential to enhance applied competencies in this institutional context. To translate these gains into sectoral outcomes, future work will pursue multi‑institutional, comparative or quasi‑experimental studies with independent external evaluation and longitudinal tracking linked to deployment and electrification indicators, alongside expanded coverage of advanced power electronics, control, and grid integration.
