DSW Uganda
DSW’s engagement in Uganda dates back to 1996 when DSW’s Uganda office was established. We are committed to improving the sexual and reproductive health of young people in Uganda through training and partnership with non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and self help initiatives. The core activities of DSW Uganda are training, advocating for SRHR and networking, implementing the DSW Y2Y programme and building the capacity of Ugandan partner organisations. Our aim is also to improve people's livelihood and welfare by promoting gender equality, income generating activities and environmental conservation.
