About Us

Volunteer Action Network is a non-governmental and non-profit organization established in 2005 to empower women and girls in Uganda by providing spaces and resources to enable them to participate effectively in individual and community development processes, thus, strengthening the economic resilience of individuals, their families, and communities to lead successful and dignified lives.

Our programs target underserved and marginalized rural women and girls in post-conflict northern Uganda region with a comprehensive selection of targeted programs as summarised in the following themes

1)    Economic empowerment

2)    Governance and leadership

3)    Sexual and reproductive health rights.

4)   Education and capacity development.

5)    Advocacy and partnership

Each programme utilizes beneficiary women as peer educators in their community to further disseminate the knowledge they have gained, create support networks, and foster further change in their communities for women.
