Who we are

We are a charity organization, equipping teaching laboratories in Africa and other developing countries. Our goal is to find and acquire usable and reusable laboratory equipment, tools, supplies, and machines and then transfer these items to teaching laboratories in colleges and universities in developing countries. Our partnership with research laboratories, organizations, universities and colleges, and the makers of laboratory equipment and tools is our mechanism of seeking requisite laboratory items for reposing to institutions that could benefit from them. We believe that educational experiments and valuable research using devices acquired through this mechanism would create a better learning environment and opportunities for students in these regions.

Experiential learning in the sciences is our objective as we seek partners to meek our goal of equipping teaching laboratories within African institutions and beyond. We are convinced that our approach will connect theoretical work and knowledge to hands-on skills that are more engaging and applicable and are of industrial demands that meet real-world needs. We hope to assist institutions in graduating scientists who are prepared to work mentally and empirically to solve challenging problems in their immediate scientific community and contribute globally to scientific inquiries and knowledge creation through research and innovation.

In Third and Fourth world nations where, scientific gear is hard to acquire or afford, this would be a benefaction of epic proportions. This could represent the very first opportunity for these young men and women to acquire practical experience, in a real laboratory, performing real experiments.

There essential equipment, sitting unused in universities and laboratories all over the world, and this equipment could change the lives of these proto scientists if made available to them. Instead of graduating from science degree based fully on memory-work from old lectures notes, they could have tangible, saw-it-with-my-own-eyes, empirical experience, which as we know is more persistent than something that was merely read.

The First World nations are doing fine in this regard, to the extent that they always have the latest equipment, the best trained people, and all the resources they can imagine. As a direct result of continuous upgrades, they also have perfectly functional equipment warehoused away that they no longer use.

Bare minimum

This lack of resources explains why only one of 1,225 African universities made the top 200. How can you learn about biology or genetics without microscopes, electrophoresis machines, centrifuges, ovens, and autoclaves? How can you learn engineering without computers, CAD/CAM programs, drafting tables, calculators, and databases of engineering materials?

Those learning to be chemists need essential gear like personal protective equipment, Bunsen burners (and fuel), retort stands, ventilation hoods, lab glassware, reagents & reactants, filters, litmus paper, ad nauseum. Those learning geography and geology need more than text books—they need remote-controlled drones and a way to charge them in the field; they need survey equipment, rock hammers, goggles, and tough protective gear for field work.

About work

Organization working structure

DULABS is a charitable organization based in Denver, Colorado linked with the University of Denver. We are dedicated to building sustainable science-oriented culture changes in the developing world. To accomplish this, we are in the process of collecting new or used scientific equipment from the Western World. It will then be repurposed and provided to the struggling educational institutions in Africa, et al.

For that to happen, we need to become your scientific partners and build cooperative relationships with your university and your labs.  What you consider to be your “old laboratory goods” can have a bright new future in the hands of people that need it to obtain practical scientific experience.

Scientific jobs are few and far between in the Third and Fourth worlds because for decades the fields of science have been ignored.  The dearth of trained scientists results in a lack of scientific entrepreneurs that truly understand the value of science to the economy. 

That changes when graduates have the skills to solve local problems, and to enhance the life of the population.  When the benefits of science make themselves obvious to the people, the field grows enthusiastically.

What do we need?

Laboratory equipment, tools, computers, and supplies in the following areas:

Computers, Laptops, software and other supplies

Any scientific gear, from chromatographs to triple-beam balances; from dry reagents to water purifiers; from computers to handheld tablets; all will be useful. Media is useful, too, such as textbooks and maintenance manuals for donated equipment, as well as the other sort of media, for growing culture samples in Petri dishes. It is hard to imagine anything found in your lab that could not be use in the Third and Fourth worlds.

This is where you may be able to help. We need partnerships with your institutions. Getting that equipment to Denver, Colorado would be a magnificent achievement all on its own, but it still needs to be moved overseas. Any ability to assist with transportation would be fantastic, but DULABS can manage that, too, with an infusion of plain old cash. Imagine changing the future just by donating your unused scientific gear!
