Support 1,000+ Survivors of Sexual Abuse in Uganda

In 2026, Nyaka marks 25 years of community-led impact in rural Uganda. What began as a simple promise in 2001, to stand with the most vulnerable, has grown into a long-term commitment to healing, dignity, and justice for survivors of sexual and gender-based violence.

Through this program, Nyaka supports survivors with trauma-informed counseling, access to medical care, safe spaces, and community-based prevention efforts. Our approach is rooted in trust and local leadership, ensuring survivors are supported not only in moments of crisis, but throughout their healing journey.

As we reflect on 25 years of impact, we are reminded that real change takes time, consistency, and compassion. Survivors are not defined by what happened to them, and with the right support, they can rebuild their lives with strength and hope.

Thank you for walking alongside survivors and for helping Nyaka keep its promise, year after year.

This summer, Nyaka held another successful Annual Walk Against Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (SGBV), bringing together community members, students, local leaders, and advocates from across Uganda to stand united against abuse. The march raised powerful awareness about the ongoing need to protect and empower women and girls while engaging men and boys as partners in creating lasting change.

Our dedicated team in Uganda continues to work every day to combat sexual and gender-based violence through education, prevention, and care for survivors. From school-based programs that teach children about their rights, to community dialogues and survivor support services, Nyaka’s holistic approach ensures that every person, especially the most vulnerable, has access to safety, justice, and hope. Thank you for standing with us as we build a future free from violence.
