Our Story

A community-based organization with a clear mission

ACHIEVE (Advocate For Children And Environment) is a dynamic community-based organization established in 2013, founded on a simple conviction: children and the environment must come first.

We operate primarily in Wakiso, Kampala and Mukono districts, extending our reach nationwide through partnerships with other community-based and non-governmental organizations across Uganda. We combine child rights protection with environmental conservation through direct interventions, stakeholder training, research, advocacy, capacity building and resource mobilization.
