According to the World Bank Report, unemployed young people between the ages 15 to 24 stands at 83% in Uganda, says the newly launched Africa Development Indicators (ADI) 2008/09 and is worst in Northern part of the country standing higher compared other regions. Many children and women have continuously suffered from various problems which include hunger, several diseases such as HIV Aids and Malaria, high rate of youth unemployment due to lack of employable skills, poor quality education and high school dropout rate.
Our organization has made a tremendous move in delivering and offering quality services to these groups in the post conflict society in Northern Uganda during the past few years it has been in operation, through implementing various interventions to the community of Lango Sub Region in Northern Uganda.
We strongly believe in our cause of transforming the lives of the young population in Uganda and Africa as a whole. The future of Africa lies in the quality of young people being raised today that will have a great cause in changing the past history of Africa known for poor governance, undemocratic styles of leadership, corruption and leadership that do not cherish aspirations of young people. We are investing in young lives.
We have a big vision for upcoming years and this journey has begun. We therefore call upon your support and contributions towards our big cause.
