Organization Details

Equality Heals Africa (EHA) was founded by a group of concerned libertarians, interventionists and human rights activists with a prime objective of responding to various marginalized groups in Uganda that suffer from discrimination and exclusion. Our target group includes and not limited to people with disabilities, single mothers, victims of fistula disease, albinos, prisoners and persons of different sexual orientation. These people are usually subjects of hate, superstitious accusations and even murder.
