Descripción
Hello, my name is Edrick, and I am the Executive Director and Founder of a Sustainable food Initiative based in Kasese District, Rwenzori Region, Uganda. Our organization is community-based and fully registered.
I am dedicated to developing sustainable agri-food systems and empowering smallholder farmers through education and support.
I truly enjoy working with this community and my team. The region boasts fertile soils, a pleasant climate, and local markets that support farmers' harvests. Despite facing challenges, the community has shown remarkable resilience, producing enough food to feed a significant portion of the nation's population.
We are located near one of Uganda's most popular tourist attractions, surrounded by the Rwenzori Mountains National Park and Queen Elizabeth National Park. We love this place, and I'm sure you would too.
Our team consists of:
- 5 Field Assistants who actively implement field activities for our current projects
- 1 Administrative Assistant
- 1 Accounts Assistant

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
An amazing cultural experience will be had while volunteering in Kasese. Through a variety of social activities, we provide volunteers the chance to fully engage with our local culture. These include learning traditional dances and music, going to local markets and community events, and sharing meals with our family and team. Additionally, volunteers can learn about our distinctive way of life and take part in local farming activities.
We are excited to impart our understanding of regional dialects, customary arts and crafts like basketry, and environmentally friendly farming methods. Volunteers can also learn about our history, mythology, and the Rwenzori region's rich cultural legacy.
