“I started with just UGX 5,000 roasting maize on the streets. After saving, I started a charcoal business and now earn over UGX 20,000 a day. SLS’s Youth Programme helped transform my life.

Today, Slum Life Survival joined the Infectious Diseases Institute (IDI) at Makerere University for the AYP Stakeholders Engagement Meeting, bringing together health facilities and community organisations to strengthen how young people get referred to the services they need.

We shared something we're proud of: our Sports Gala and MDD Tournament already bring young people together from across our communities. That's not just about the games, it's a ready-made space where health information and referral pathways can reach Adolescents and Young People (AYP) naturally.

Thank you to Infectious Diseases Institute - Makerere University and Makerere University College of Health Sciences for hosting this important conversation, and to everyone working to close the gap between services and the young people who need them.

We joined forces with Miss Climate Change Awareness Kirabo Patience Joyce for a community cleaning exercise in Kinawataka and Mbuya. The national directive for citizen-led environmental action comes at a point when SLS is increasingly conducting cleaning exercises in the operational areas.

Community sanitation and environmental stewardship have been part of SLS's strategic plan since 2018. For us, this is business as usual: clean, safe, livable settlements are foundational to everything else we do, from child protection to health outcomes.

Huge thanks to the Miss Climate team and every volunteer who showed up with gloves, gumboots, and energy. Environmental health is community health. 💚
