With a mission to ensure the dignity, rights, and well-being of individuals affected by disability and marginalization, HI has earned global recognition, including the 1997 Nobel Peace Prize as part of the International Campaign to Ban Landmines. Founded in 1982, the organization has evolved into a leader in inclusive humanitarian response and development, operating in over 60 countries across Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East.

Co-recipient of the 1997 Nobel Peace Prize, Humanity & Inclusion (the new name of Handicap International) is a 40-year-old independent and impartial organization working in situations of poverty and exclusion, conflict and disaster.

We work alongside people with disabilities and individuals experiencing extreme hardship, acting and bearing witness to respond to their essential needs, improve their living conditions and promote respect for their dignity and fundamental rights.

HI in Uganda is currently implementing development and humanitarian interventions in six sectors/thematic areas: Livelihood, Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS), Physical and Functional Rehabilitation, Inclusive Education, Inclusive Health, and Inclusive Humanitarian Action (IHA) to improve access and quality of services to the most vulnerable people including persons with disabilities promoting a more inclusive and harmonious society.


Project Background

In response to key issues impacting sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) in West Nile, Uganda for adolescents, young people, and women and in line with the priorities of the Embassy of the Kingdom of Netherlands (EKN), the IRC is proposing to deliver the ‘Protecting Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights’ (PROTECT SRHR) project. The International Rescue Committee (IRC) and a team of experienced, specialized consortium partners – Word Vision (WV), Reach A Hand Uganda (RAHU), and Humanity & Inclusion (HI), as well as strategic partner Open Capital Advisors (OCA) – have designed a holistic, evidence-based approach to tackle these issues, aiming to ultimately improve the SRHR and social wellbeing of 1,147,105 adolescents, young people, and women of a reproductive age by reducing preventable maternal deaths, teenage pregnancies, sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV), child marriage and new HIV infections in West Nile, Uganda.
