For every young person in Uganda to Learn, Heal, Earn and Thrive at School and in Life.

In many vulnerable communities in Uganda, young people struggle with psychosocial challenges such as trauma, isolation, and low self-esteem. These are a result of living in poverty, lack of support networks, and exposure to violence and abuse, affecting their educational and life attainment. Faces Up Uganda equips young people to overcome these barriers through a holistic approach: 1) art as therapy to heal and build confidence, 2) artpreneurship to turn creativity into income-generating opportunities that fund their education and livelihoods, and 3) design for change to empower young people to start projects that address key challenges in their communities.
