Benjamin Kilelan Tukei is the Project Manager for Project Trinitē Kenya, leading technology-for-development work that closes the digital divide, tackles youth unemployment, and connects underserved communities to remote and online opportunities. A strong technical and AI expert with hands-on experience in off-grid solar solutions, he works in contexts where power, connectivity, and skills must be built from the ground up.
He oversees the deployment of solar-powered digital hubs -training and work centers that bring together clean energy, satellite internet access, and practical digital-skills training. Through these hubs, young people, women, and remote communities are able to learn, work online, access e-services, and participate in the digital economy , even in places that previously had no internet or reliable power.
Project Trinitē’s model is simple and effective: power first, connect next, create opportunity. By combining renewable energy, digital infrastructure, and human capacity building, Benjamin helps ensure that technology translates into real, sustainable economic empowerment – not just access, but pathways to income, participation, and dignity.
With a solid background in digital systems, AI tools, project management platforms, and API integrations, he designs solutions that are sustainable, scalable, and manageable by local teams, in line with the country’s wider digital transformation goals.
Driven by service and a commitment to young people, Benjamin is helping build a future where talent in previously overlooked areas can learn, earn, and thrive – powered by the sun and enabled by innovation.
