Our Story

Listen First International – Uganda (LiFI-U) is a non-profit organization seeking to facilitate the timeless but often abandoned practice of listening to each other, regardless of politics, religion, race, ethnicity, gender, socioeconomic status, education or any other distinction. We believe in the power of listening to increase understanding, respect and cooperation, allowing for the establishment of vibrant, prosperous, and safe communities.

Listen First International – Uganda works with local partners, communities, governments and international agencies to address challenges facing the world today. We focus our contributions in three key areas:

Peace building and violence reduction, including domestic violence, communal violence, gender based violence, and violent extremism;

Community development, including education, health, economic equality and prosperity, and;

Civic leadership, including advocacy for issues of good governance, human rights, the rule of law, and community engagement in Uganda and beyond.

After working for several years in northern Uganda during the insurgency by the Lord’s Resistance Army Rebels with two non profit organizations, the founder of Listen Listen First International Uganda Chapter discovered there was just too much he needed to do to support his community and country. He was blessed to have met and interacted with Pearce Godwin and his wife Chrissy Godwin. After several visits to the communities across Lango region, and several discussions, it was clear that Listen First would be the ideal response to dealing with many of the challenges within the society as more and more talked bitterly because of the thought that they were neglected and made to suffer in the hands of the rebel Lord’s Resistance Army and the anger at authorities and certain communities.

Listen First therefore continues to put its efforts and resources in dealing with these challenges as we continue to delve into more political and cultural crises ranging from rule of law, crime, violence, health and other social issues.
