Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program Alumni: Ibrahim Kasujja

Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program Alumni Ibrahim Kasujja has built on his success at McGill’s Dobson Cup startup competition to help improve the school diet in his native Uganda 

Ibrahim Kasujja’s journey began during the COVID-19 pandemic when he started his master’s in human nutrition at McGill University remotely from Uganda.

Despite time zone challenges, he actively engaged in the McGill Dobson Cup startup competition, pitching NutriPosh—a blend of maize flour and pumpkin seeds enriched with essential nutrients. His innovation earned him first place and the $10,000 Mastercard Foundation-Dobson Startup Award.
