Organization's work related to TAP network's SGD16+ work & accountability for 2030 Agenda:

As much as we can, Assure Uganda with a membership of 2,300,000 young people country wide is enthusiastic to walk a long SDG 16. We have been implementing projects such as enhancing the understanding of Democracy among the youth through Soccer and this is the unique approach to ensure that for example youth are number one in our democracy and once they participate in leadership levels while still young and being accountable in their lower levels of leadership like being a prefect at school level, this will pave a way to have responsible and accountable leaders in future unlike today.
