AVSI began operations in Northern Uganda in 1984, focusing on education, economic empowerment, agriculture and livelihoods, health, disability, HIV and AIDS, nutrition, child protection, clean energy, sanitation and hygiene and humanitarian emergencies.
Through public and private partnerships, AVSI engages with private sector players, government and communities to build capacity of children, youth and households across Uganda through a comprehensive family-centered approach that builds resilience and contributes to sustainable development, responding to the real needs of people.
