Refugee and Displacement Organisations in Uganda
Verified refugee organisations in Uganda listings, with the districts, programme areas and contact details that partners need.
Refugee organisations in Uganda
Uganda hosts one of the largest refugee populations in Africa, and organisations working in the settlements frequently deliver services that would otherwise fall to local government: primary health care, water points, primary education, protection and livelihood training.
Humanitarian partners look for demonstrated acceptance in both refugee and host communities, experience with donor compliance and reporting, and the ability to meet protection and safeguarding standards. Local and refugee-led organisations bring access that larger agencies cannot replicate.
