  1. About us

About us

Amigos Worldwide works with children, youths and caregivers in rural northern Uganda, facilitating training, education and infrastructure so that they may become self-supporting in the future. We don't believe that there is a magic wand that will end poverty, but we DO believe that by providing people with access to training in vocational skills, conservation farming and communication skills while children attend school, we can see long-term, sustainable transformations.
