About this project
J. Mutembuzi from Youth Nest Uganda Ltd is responsible for this project
Youth Nest Uganda’s point of view is that it is of no use how hard the government and development partners try to help if the recipients of development do not stand up and participate with passion for transformation, taking the front line position. Many rural communities the youth in particular lack voluntary desire and spirit of self-help, diligence and cooperation. On that note, Youth Nest Uganda (YONU) came up with Village Development Associations (VIDA) model and seeks to apply social entrepreneurship as a means in advancing skills, tolerance, accountability and peace to promote community co-existence, expression and involvement by carrying out village to village mobilization, sensitization, youth skilling and entrepreneurship training outreach activities basing on three basic principles of self-help, diligence and cooperation to help communities more especially the youth gain mindset reformation, financial inclusion, increased incomes, skills and environmental improvement and protection through public private partnerships.
