"The status of children, disability and lack of economic empowerment – especially of women in Uganda continue to be areas that need serious attention.To address these negative conditions, Ka Tutandike plays a small but dynamic role in protecting the rights of poor and marginalised children and women in Uganda. We want to create compassionate blueprints for lasting change that can be replicated to benefit other similar communities in Uganda and in time, perhaps elsewhere in the region. Our strength lies in being pro-active and empathetic to the ever changing needs and priorities at the grass roots level."
