Of the 2.9 million children who die each year, poor nutrition plays a role in at least half these deaths. We aim to reach communities as early as possible towards the realisation of the right to food, and stay on to support them—long after the TV cameras have gone home.
With more than 18 years of experience, working in more than 100 districts in Uganda, we have a massive reach. Each year we reach millions of people directly. We support sustainable farming techniques, smart water use, market access and innovation in volatile climates. We understand the need and right to adequate food, and put this at the centre of everything we do.
Ending hunger requires a comprehensive approach. We fight hunger by focusing on five major approaches that save the most lives: Advocacy, Capacity Building, Knowledge Management Systems, Strategic Collaborations and Human Rights Based approaches.
Over the years the Alliance has grown from the three institutions to more than 60 national, international and local organizations. We work with individuals in four regional food security networks in Central, Western (Rwenzori inclusive) and Eastern Uganda.
