Founder's reflection
Medical interventions alone are not enough. We need an ecosystem that restores dignity, creates livelihoods, and changes perceptions — all in one inclusive space. These social summits are the prototype for Uganda where every major town has a heartbeat of inclusion. By 2025, we'll have Summits from Kisoro to Kotido, each rooted but united in purpose.
