Girl Up Initiative Uganda is a women-led NGO that puts women & girls at the centre of development w/ girls leadership, #SRHR & econ. empowerment programs Girl Up Initiative Uganda's (GUIU) mission is to build a vibrant movement of girls through transformative leadership, sexual and reproductive health education, and skills development. We envision a gender equal world where girls thrive and lead. While girls and women constitute our focus group, our approach engages boys and men as well, as this is key to bringing about lasting gender transformation. The outcome is a harmonious and informed community of confident, aspirational independent girls and women, supported by gender-conscious boys and men. Our current strategy is based on human rights and feminist theory, to tackle pervasive gender inequality that exposes girls and women to various forms of Gender Based Violence (GBV) and poor Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) outcomes.
