Solidarity Uganda is a collective of dedicated trainers and consultants committed to fostering civil resistance and driving social change. Our goal is to cultivate a resilient culture of resistance against oppression, shaping a new future for Uganda. We operate on the pillars of inspiration, education, and action, recognizing that without inspiration, individuals may remain passive, without education, they may resort to ineffective methods (such as violence), and without action, progress stalls.
