In Movement: Art for Social Change is a registered non-governmental organization (NGO), founded in 2006, that implements arts education programs with orphans and other disadvantaged youth in Uganda. The goal of In Movement, as established in our 2003 pilot project, is to promote creativity through the arts. They believe that the arts offer a very powerful tool for youth empowerment, unlocking a vast potential for personal growth and transformation, while promoting happier, healthier, and more satisfying lives.
KAYDA (Katwe Youth Development Association) has developed several initiatives to support homeless, abandoned and orphaned youth/children that spend most of their time on the streets. The organization has established a Drop in Centre, which comprises of five rooms, a carpentry workshop and other two projects for poultry, and Barbershop. The centre has 35 children who regularly drop in and are undergoing behavior change. They get all the basic requirements from the centre. Only girls are fostered with KAYDA Members and if possible reunited back with their families. Since its initiation in 1995, the organization has re integrated more than 120 children back to their families and others live independently.
