Entrepreneurs fight malnutrition & women's health challenges in Uganda

As part of the ILO and UNICEF’s UPSHIFT programme, a group of refugee and host community youth in Uganda's sub-camp came together to create solutions for their communities. Through the programme, they developed New Vision Group, producing soya milk and soya meat to fight malnutrition. They also created OKA, a locally made remedy for vaginal infections, addressing hygiene challenges. Trained by UPSHIFT mentors, these young innovators are turning ideas into impact. Watch how the initiative empowers youth to become entrepreneurs and job creators, shaping a healthier future for their communities!
