We look for vulnerabilities overlooked by bigger organisations and work with communities to solve them.

Food insecurity research, Uganda
Refugees who have newly arrived in Uganda face a reduction in rations provided before their first feasible harvest. This induces significant hunger, and in turn negative coping mechanisms.
