Rooted Wisdom Africa is focused on building Ugandan communities for long-term, sustainable success.
We begin through dialogue with the community, and our programs are then adjusted to meet those specific needs. Our blueprint: education and enterprise tied together and led from the inside out results in local leadership and demonstrated financial independence.
Help plant the seeds of sustainability
Experience the transformative impact of joining The Grove, a collection of individuals deeply committed to Rooted Wisdom Africa’s mission and programs.
Our priority is knowledge and skills transfer – we are training trainers, but we also embed peer-to-peer and intergenerational learning to set these communities up for success. To that end, we are trying to work ourselves out of a job in these communities by creating sustainable financial independence for families and entire communities so we can then support others in turn.
