Mission 12: founding CBO WORK UG

The office with certificates from District of Kabale and Southern Division approving our activities

We have established a second association under the name ‘WORK Uganda’. She has similar statutes as PROUD UG, but PROUD UG is concerned with 'appropriate education' for children and young people with intellectual disabilities and WORK UG will be working on the ‘employment’ of adolescents and adults with intellectual disabilities. WORK UG also wants to organize training courses for third parties on the coaching of people with intellectual disabilities.

WORK UG has received a certificate of registration from Kabale District Local Government as a Community Based Organization (CBO) on 11/3/2019 under number 14006. The CBO is recognized to undertake the following activities:

-to create job opportunities for people with intellectual disabilities;

-establish social enterprises where people with intellectual disabilities can work;

-organize vocational training and job coaching for people with intellectual disabilities;

-organize exchanges and training courses on work for people with an intellectual disability (WORK UG Training center).


It is assumed that the basis is laid for future activities of a productive and commercial nature that will lead to employment for our young adults.
