CECO-Uganda has been working tirelessly to promote sustainable development through community empowerment. Our recent projects have focused on environmental conservation, education, and agricultural development. Learn more about our work and how we are achieving our goals by exploring the projects below.

​

"Stop the bush burning"- an environmental education and advocacy campaign to reduce bush burning in the region. Currently the region is experiencing higher rates of bush burning, particularly in the dry season. In the region there is a culture to burn grass on farms and some times these fires spread and consume forest areas. The objective for this project is to create awareness about the dangers of bush burning, and law. The second objective is to accelerate the implementation of the law against bush burning.
