Sharifa turns her greatest pain into resilience

Act4Africa Uganda is an award-winning NGO, working with long-standing partners and registered charity Act4Africa UK. We aim to reduce poverty and transform communities through our health, education, agriculture and livelihood programmes. Reducing gender inequality is central to our work. In our experience, it provides the most fundamental obstacle to eradicating poverty.
Act4Africa cordially invites you to a zoom chat over lunch on March 9, 2023, at 12:30 UK Time, in honour of International Women’s Day. The purpose of the conversation is to brainstorm potential solutions for resolving the problems that vulnerable young women and girls face.
Since it is, in our opinion, the best path to alleviating poverty, we have been working relentlessly for the past 22 years to eradicate gender inequality.
Our Ugandan team members will join us for this specific talk during lunch:
Our field officer, Thereza Nalumansi
Our field officer and counsellor, Harriet Nakirya
We will give you a glimpse into their daily hardships, explain how we work with the communities and women you help via generous donations, and share success stories made possible by your support.
We appreciate you taking the time to consider joining us, and we hope to see you soon.
With best wishes
From the entire incredible Act4Africa team
