Northern
Uganda.

Local knowledge and local expertise inspired us to design a model contextualized to where we work. With decades of experience working in the region and sector, our team of 65 in Uganda is the best in the business.

Northern Uganda is the poorest region in the country and is impacted by many challenges: unpredictable growing seasons due to climate change, unpredictable markets due to global instability, and a refugee crisis along the northern border.

We work in some of the most remote parts of this region not because it’s easy, but because it’s where we can have the most impact. The people of Northern Uganda and South Sudan consistently inspire us with their creativity and grit.

Asset based development delivers results because it’s built on the resources available in a given context. In our context, clients have access to an abundance of land and labor, which is why we partner with them to grow their farming capacity as step one on their journey out of extreme poverty.

Musa

Is Capable

The foundation of our work is mindset change. Our clients point to the shift from "I can't" to "I can" as the most vital step on their path out of extreme poverty. That’s why we will always prioritize individual, family, and community counseling alongside economic development.

Onen Musa was our client during 2020-2021, and he describes his present reality as "Yama kuta." It's a slang term that essentially means "a cool breeze," like the one when your mom blows on a cut when you're a kid or the one that comes under the mango tree on a hot day right before the rain.

Musa is one of thousands who have created the best possible future for their families. He has built a house, his five kids are in boarding school, and he’s diversified his income through farming and small business. Most importantly, he now enjoys peace and harmony in his home. Yama kuta.
