Our Video Testimonials
Just like it is the case in many African countries countries, many young people especially girls and women, move from their villages to towns due to perceived job opportunities in urban areas. Generally, Uganda is grappling with the challenge of unemployment, youth and women being the most affected. According to findings from the Uganda National Labour Force Survey 2022, at least 41 percent of youth, which represents 9.3 million aged between 18 and 30 years are not engaged in any productive activity. A big share ends up in the Capital city in search for greener pastures all in vain.
They dwell in the city slums in abject poverty, with no skills, no jobs and no hope for survival, only to resort to drugs, unsafe sexual behaviors and crime for survival. Our bifocal strategy of rural communities and urban slums, enables us to comprehensively provide tailored solutions for unique groups within their environments. Our Programs prioritize school drop-out youths/girls and young mothers living in these slum areas.

From a dedicated volunteer to now leading operations at End Poverty-Uganda, Ireene’s journey is a testament to the power of opportunity and perseverance. Her growth reflects our belief that everyone has unique talent and when given a chance, they can thrive. At End Poverty-Uganda, we don’t just support women and girls—we recognize that they deserve opportunities to lead, grow and shape their own futures. Let’s continue creating spaces where women and youth rise!
“Sensitization”
Awareness is the first step toward change—without it, solving challenges becomes nearly impossible, much like treating a misdiagnosed disease. Communities cannot solve challenges they are unaware of.
At both personal and organizational levels, we are dedicated to educating communities about the harsh realities of poverty while advocating for transformative solutions. Through public media and direct engagement, we inform decision-makers, communities and all stakeholders, urging collective action.
Guided by our core value of Collaboration & Teamwork, we believe that only together can we break the cycle of poverty in our communities and create lasting impact.
