The Blair Project Signs Landmark Skills Development Partnership in South Africa to Power Africa’s Green Economy

The Blair Project is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Boundless Group and Boundless Academy following a landmark Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signing ceremony at the Boundless Campus in Soweto last week. This milestone moment was marked by an inspirational visit from Dr. Marilyn Comrie OBE, Executive Director of The Blair Project and Verciti Ltd, who is internationally recognised for her leadership in inclusive innovation, skills development and industrial revitalisation.

The MoU signifies a shared commitment to equipping South Africa’s youth with the technical skills and training needed to thrive in the rapidly emerging green economy. Through this collaboration, the Boundless Academy will expand its curriculum to deliver cutting-edge training in Electrification, Hydrogen, and Net Zero technologies, powered by The Blair Project’s award-winning expertise and Verciti’s immersive net zero skills training platform.

“Our goal is to empower a new generation of young South Africans with the skills, opportunities and belief to lead Africa’s energy transition,” said Dr. Marilyn Comrie OBE. “We’re thrilled to work alongside Boundless Group and Boundless Academy to co-create a future where young people are not only job-ready but also future-ready.”

This partnership brings together purpose-driven organisations that share a bold vision for an inclusive, sustainable, and tech-enabled future. By providing accessible pathways into green careers, this alliance will help drive economic inclusion while addressing urgent challenges around climate change and industrial transformation.

Sipho Claassen, Founder and CEO of the Boundless Group, added:

“This is more than a partnership – it’s a movement. Our learners were energised by Marilyn’s presence and inspired by her belief in their potential. The time to build is now. We invite like-minded partners from across the public and private sectors to join us in shaping Africa’s sustainable future.”
