Our Vision, Mission & Values

Who we are

Reproductive Health Uganda (RHU) is an indigenous, voluntary, not-for-profit organisation registered under the Trustee Incorporation Act of Uganda. We are affiliated to the world’s largest Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) organisation, the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF). RHU is a fully registered non-governmental organisation under the NGO Registration Act Chapter 113, certificate number S5914/255.

We envision a Uganda where everyone’s SRHR are fulfilled and protected without discrimination and champion, provide and enable universal access to rights based SRHR information and services to vulnerable and underserved communities especially young people

What sets us apart

RHU was founded in 1957 as Family Planning Association of Uganda (FPAU) and we are proud to be associated with pioneering family planning in Uganda. For more than 60 years we have been involved in SRHR service provision and advocacy programmes that have defined the SRHR landscape in the country.

We provide life-saving, affordable, accessible and quality SRHR information and services to the most vulnerable and underserved communities including young people, refugees, and those in hard to reach areas.

RHU implements several programmes in humanitarian settings in up to ten (10) refugee settlements. Uganda receives over one million refugees annually and this is a vulnerable group of people with several health needs including SRHR information and services. Over the years we have built a strong presence in refugee settings to reach this population with a full range of services.
