"Empowered men, empower women."Naira Kateregga, Founder

NK Udada Foundation was born from a vision to address the systemic inequalities faced by young girls and women in Uganda — but our founder quickly understood that true gender equality cannot be achieved by empowering only one side.

We believe in nurturing both young women and men to be bold, educated, and compassionate. When we invest in both genders, we are not dividing power — we are multiplying potential.

Today, NK Udada operates across Kampala with a growing team of youth changemakers, a robust volunteer network, and partnerships with established organisations in health, education, and community development.
