Support the Batwa

For generations, the Batwa of Uganda lived in harmony with their forest, but displacement has left many struggling to secure land, food, health care, and a future for their children. Yet, their resilience and determination to protect their culture and assert their rights remain strong.

The Ihamba Project is working with two organizations in the Kanungu District of Uganda who support the Batwa.
