History
KIWALD was founded i

n May 2013 as Rwot Lakica Women's Group in Siriba, Bweyale, by three bold women: Adong Jane Opio, Abur Monica, and Laker Rosalyn Agnes. Frustrated by a lack of interest in funding women’s human rights, they founded an organization. Though RLWG has changed to KIWALD, the philosophy of our founders has remained: trust women. Women are the best agents of change in our communities and giving them resources and a voice can change the country.

THE "MINDSET" BARRIER

​The biggest hurdle facing the youth in Northern Uganda isn't the distance to the capital or the lack of electricity, it’s the 'poverty of the mind.' If you believe you are disadvantaged, you will act disadvantaged.

It’s time to change the narrative. We must stop seeing our region as a 'post-war zone' and start seeing it as the frontier of opportunity. * Victim vs. Victor: A victim waits for help; a victor looks for tools.

​The Brightest Sun: The sun rises in the East, but it shines brightest on those who are already out in the field working.

​Local Pride: Our region is rich in resources, rich in land, and rich in talent. The only thing missing is your belief that you can win right here at home.

​At KIWALD ENTREPRENEURS, we don't just teach business; we transform minds. We help you break the mental chains of the past so you can build the businesses of the future.

​Is your mindset holding you back or pulling you forward? Join the KIWALD community today and let’s rewire for success!

EDUCATION Vs SKILLS

​To my brothers and sisters in the Acoli sub region: A degree is a piece of paper; a skill is a piece of bread. Don't get us wrong, education is important, but don't just hunt for certificates.

Hunt for skills that the market is starving for. The world doesn't pay you for what you know; it pays you for what you can do.

​The Skill Gap: Can you fix a tractor? Can you manage a modern commercial farm? Can you code a website? Can you weld the gates for the new buildings in Gulu?

Be Irreplaceable: A certificate can be duplicated, but a master, level skill makes you the only person people want to call.

​Future Proofing: While others are looking for jobs, the person with a skill is busy creating one.

​KIWALD ENTREPRENEURS focuses on practical, market, ready skills. We bridge the gap between your school education and your first paycheck. We offer the coaching and training needed to turn your talent into a professional service.

​What is that one skill you've always wanted to master? Tell us in the comments, or visit KIWALD today to find out about our latest skill, building workshops!

THE POWER OF STARTING SMALL

I see many of our youth in Northern Uganda waiting for 'big capital' or a government grant to arrive before they start.

Let me tell you a secret: Big things that last always start small. If you want to own a fleet of buses, start by managing one boda boda with absolute discipline.
If you want a 5-star hotel, start with a small, clean eatery that serves the best food in the village.

​Master the Small Numbers: If you cannot manage 100,000 UGX, you will surely lose 100 Million UGX.

​The Power of Compound Growth: A small seed doesn't become a Shea tree overnight. It takes consistency, watering, and time.

​Build Your Muscles: Starting small allows you to make 'small mistakes' that you can learn from before the stakes get high.

​At KIWALD ENTREPRENEURS, we specialize in helping micro startups scale. We don't just look at where you are; we look at where you are going.
Whether you have 50,000 UGX or 5 Million, we show you the roadmap to growth.
Master the small numbers today, and the big numbers will eventually find you.

​Ready to take that first small step? Stop waiting for the 'perfect' moment. Visit KIWALD today, we help small ideas become big realities!

FROM RECONSTRUCTION TO PRODUCTION

​For decades, our region(Acoli Sub region)was defined by terms like 'recovery,' 'aid,' and 'relief.' But let the word go out today:

That era is over. The next billionaire from the Acoli sub-region will not be a recipient of a handout; they will be a provider of a solution. Whether it’s value addition for our local oilseeds, tech solutions for trade in Gulu City, or modernizing construction in other districts, the opportunity is ours to take.
​Why wait for an NGO to save you when you have the power to create?

​The Solution Mindset: Don't just look for a job; look for a problem that people are tired of having. If you solve it, they will pay you for it.

​Value Addition: Why sell raw sunflower seeds for a pittance when we can process the oil right here? We must stop exporting our profits!

​Economic Independence: True freedom isn't receiving a donation; it’s creating a value chain that employs your neighbors.

​At KIWALD ENTREPRENEURS, we are the bridge between 'needing help' and 'creating wealth.' We provide the consultancy, business tools, and strategic training to help you move from a survivor to a producer.
​Stop waiting for a savior. Become the solution.

Do you have a business idea that solves a local problem? Don't let it die in your head. Approach KIWALD today, and let’s turn that solution into a profitable reality!

YOUR REPUTATION IS YOUR FIRST CAPITAL!

In Northern Uganda, trust is the rarest currency.

To the young entrepreneur: Before you ask for a bank loan or a government grant, ask yourself, is your word your bond? In a region rebuilding its economy, your reputation is the only collateral that never loses value.

Think about this:
The Ladder of Credit: If you borrow 50,000 UGX and pay it back exactly when you promised, you haven’t just cleared a debt you’ve unlocked the door to 500,000 UGX.

Character/Paper: Integrity will take you into boardrooms where a degree cannot enter. The market doesn't just look at your certificate; it looks at your track record.

Financial Discipline: If you cannot manage 50,000 UGX with discipline today, you are not yet ready for the responsibility of 5 Million UGX tomorrow.

At KIWALD ENTREPRENEURS, we don't just build businesses; we build credible leaders. We mentor youth on financial literacy, business ethics, and the discipline required to stay at the top.

Success is built on a foundation of honesty. Let your 'Yes' be 'Yes' and your business will never be lacking for partners.

Ready to grow but need a mentor to guide your financial journey? Send us a DM or visit us at KIWALD. Let’s build a legacy of trust together!

THE "HIDDEN GOLD" IN THE LAND

​Why do we call ourselves poor while sitting on a goldmine?

​Our soil doesn't care about your past; it only cares about the seed you plant today. While the world looks at Northern Uganda and sees 'recovery,' we see the Frontier of Opportunity. Did you know?

​The Power of Youth: Our region has the youngest population in Uganda, with over 75% of our people under the age of 30. We aren't just the future; we are the current workforce!

The Power of Land: The North holds some of the highest fertile land to person ratios in all of East Africa. We have what the world needs: Food and Space.

​Wealth in the North isn't found in air conditioned offices in Kampala; it’s hidden in the dirt under your feet. You don't need a suit to be a CEO; you need a vision and a garden tool.

​KIWALD ENTREPRENEURS is here to help you unlock this 'green gold.' Whether it's cotton, grains, or oilseeds, name it, we provide the agribusiness planning, modern techniques, and market links to turn your one acre into an empire.

​Don't let your land sleep while you struggle.

Visit the KIWALD office today, let’s map out your farm's potential and turn your soil into a balance sheet!
