We intend to establish safeguards that ensure that everybody in Teso sub-region lives in a safe and clean protected environment free from pollutants and hazard.

Everybody has a right to live in an environment that is conducive to his or her growth and safety, including protection from pollutants and other hazards such as (floods, extremely high drought severity/desert conditions, food insecurity and inadequate water and sanitation systems).

Together, YWAFT work to help communities develop the perfect recipe for sustainable success.
