Join Grow Together workshops in Karamoja

The Grow Together programme runs mixed workshops on menstruation, hygiene, and gender roles with Straight Talk Foundation and KIFAD partners in rural Uganda.

What you can do in Kampala

  • Read how 3,000 girls and women receive menstrual products through Grow Together
  • Support community dialogues that bring boys and men into sessions on violence prevention
  • Learn how 400 women receive coaching and start-up kits for micro-enterprises in Karamoja

How to join

This row is for residents and partners in Uganda, not tourists. Programmes run through local NGOs named on the project page. Donors in Germany can sponsor the work via Welthungerhilfe but cannot walk in without an partner invite.

Why it matters in Kampala

More than 70 percent of people over ten in Karamoja never attended school, especially girls. Menstrual cups and open talk keep girls in class and strengthen mutual aid.

Good to know

  • Who implements it? Straight Talk Foundation and Kiyita Family Alliance for Development (KIFAD).
  • Is the project ongoing? The page lists status laufend (ongoing).
