Youth Sport Uganda is a community-driven, Non-Governmental Organization based in Kampala, the capital of Uganda.Founded in 2006, the Organization has been involved in tackling issues like HIV/AIDS,poverty alleviation,and child rights in underprivileged communities in Uganda.
Using the "Sport in the Development Process" approach, we seek to foster community education, development and empowerment. The YSU concept is based on this belief that, sport with a positive orientation, when integrated into the broader framework of human and social development goals and priorities, is a powerful vehicle for change.As almost every child in Uganda participates in sport,either through merely watching or actually playing, sport presents a medium of communication that children and youth are both familiar with, and willing to participate in.
