Core beliefs

The people of Uganda, like the people world over, are KEY to their own development.

Lasting change comes only as people shift from reacting or adapting to events and circumstances to being the creators of events and circumstances.

People who share a common vision can transcend traditional barriers and prejudices caused by tribal, religious, political and gender differences and work together to achieve that which is truly important to them all.

People have innate power, wisdom and authority, which they can tap, to transform the quality of their lives and that of their communities.
Training, education and information sharing are key strategies of transformation programmes.
