Youth in Uganda are the youngest population in the world, with 77% of the population being under 25 years of age. There are 7,310,386 youth from the ages of 15–24 years living in Uganda.
Caring Hearts Charity advocates for skills development as an important factor to improve young people's transitions to decent work. We highlight the crucial role of skilled youth in addressing today's most challenging global issues.
We also work on sexual and reproductive health and rights for adolescent girls and boys, providing them with trustworthy information about sexual health and the physical and emotional changes they experience during puberty.
Through our programs, we're helping young people gain the confidence, skills, and knowledge they need to build successful futures for themselves and their communities.
