Our Projects

These skills are in the areas of tailoring and fashion design, embroidery, carpentry and joinery, motor vehicle mechanics, catering, hairdressing, Brick-making and concrete practice. The organization also recognizes the role of computer and entrepreneurship knowledge as we prepare our learners to the labor market. Therefore, they all receive computer and entrepreneurial training throughout their training period.
SDGs Awareness creation in schools
SDGs awareness creation in schools encourages responsible citizenship by educating students and helping them to understand their role in creating a sustainable feature. As an organization we believe that SDGs are an integral part of our daily life and we can contribute to SDGs better if we help student’s develop insights into the critical issues in Uganda and around the world. By creating awareness about SDGs to young people in schools, we can make Uganda and the world at large a batter place to stay.
Child Protection
Child abuse is still a major worry, especially for the boys and girls from disadvantaged families. Children who experience violence often experience long-lasting negative impacts on their physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual growth. We enable families and other significant players to collaborate in order to build a safe environment that looks out for and supports all children, especially the most vulnerable. Our interventions are geared toward helping kids by providing them with social assistance and educational opportunities.
Gender Equity and Women Empowerment Project (GEWEP)
As a result of poverty being the major cause of Gender Based Violence (GBV), gender inequalities, discrimination and any other violence against women. LADE Community Organization under GEWEP enhances participation of both men and women in economic development activities. This is achieved through sensitization of communities, provision of social worker extension and outreach services. We also partner with other service providers to set up campaigns for behavioral change in communities and institutional actions on GBV prevention and gender equity.

Enhancing the participation of PWDs and Elderly persons
Attitudinal barriers prevent persons with disabilities and elderly persons from full inclusion in society. This brings about stigma and has an impact on these individuals and their families. As LADE Community Organization, we ensure PWDs and Elderly full participation in society by making sure they have the same rights as everyone else. We also ensure they are able to make informed choices, pursue personal goals and treated equally as other members of the society.

Accidents have far-reaching consequences, including personal hardships (pain and suffering), loss of work, reduced productivity and poor reputation for organizations and companies. As organization involved in the delivery of humanitarian assistance, it is our duty to take care of safety and wellbeing of the population in the areas where we operate. We therefore monitor, create awareness on health and safety, distribute of IEC materials, investigate and report accidents. We concentrate our efforts on high-risk populations and groups, including miners, fishers, drivers, construction workers, and boda-boda riders.
