Plan Uganda: what we do

Plan Uganda's work to improve children's lives is focused on 3 core areas, reflecting the life-cycle of a child.

• A good start in life: early childhood (under 6 years)
• The next steps: primary school years (6-12 years)
• Ready for the future - now: adolescence (over 12 years)

The interventions under this country programme are rooted to improving early childhood care and development in the communities where Plan Uganda works.

Emphasis is in improving primary health care - focusing on prompting good hygiene and sanitation practices in homes, communities, support government immunisation programmes, educating communities on better parenting practices including nutrition, education for mothers and facilitating provision of early childhood care and development services including transition of infants to primary plus strengthening community based child protection mechanisms.

Plan Uganda

Plan has been working in Uganda since 1992, helping poor children to access their rights to health, education, protection and participation.

We work with more than 39,700 sponsored children, their families and communities in 5 districts across the country: Tororo, Kamuli, Luweero, Kampala and Lira. 

Currently, we are implementing the Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission programme in Tororo district. This programme aims to protect children and their families affected by HIV and AIDS through various interventions that prevent mother-to-child transmission, support outreach programmes and provide legal support.
