BACKGROUND AND NEED

Uganda, a country with a population of approximately 45 million people, faces significant challenges in rural areas, particularly within its Muslim communities. 

The Muslim population, making up about 14% of Uganda’s total population, often resides in underdeveloped regions where access to basic needs and services is limited.

Key Statistics:
POVERTY

Approximately 21.4% of Ugandans live below the national poverty line, with higher rates in rural areas.

EDUCATION

The net primary school enrolment rate is about 90%, but the quality of education remains a challenge, with high dropout rates and low completion rates.

WATER & SANITATION

Only 19% of the rural population has access to improved sanitation facilities, and 72% has access to safe drinking water.

HEALTH

Access to healthcare in rural areas is limited, contributing to high rates of preventable diseases.

This philosophy underscores the importance of collective responsibility and mutual support in child-rearing and community development. 

By focusing on a holistic approach, the "One Village at a Time" initiative leverages this cultural value to foster a supportive environment where every member contributes to and benefits from communal progress.
