Healthy People, Thriving Communities, A Brighter Tomorrow

Empowered communities, thriving futures.

A community-focused organisation in Uganda working for healthy people, thriving communities and a brighter tomorrow.

What we do

Health, education, livelihoods and family wellbeing are closely connected. We take a broad community-development approach rather than treating any one of them in isolation.

  • Healthcare – maternal and child health, safe childbirth, access to essential services
  • Education & skills – schooling and practical training that leads to work
  • Livelihoods – income, entrepreneurship and financial literacy
  • Food & agriculture – sustainable farming and access to nutritious food

The Kyebe project

The rebuilding of maternity services at Kyebe Health Centre III in Kyotera District is where our work is concentrated today – a real facility, serving real families, in a place where the nearest alternative is around 50 kilometres away.

People behind the purpose

Lusembo Initiative is governed by a board of directors who bring experience in medicine and public health, law, economics and business development, information technology, accountancy and business.
