    Youths in Technology and Development – Uganda (YITEDEV) is a Non-Profit Charitable Organization registered with the Government of Uganda as a Company Limited by Guarantee (NPO Reg. No. 214843). The Organization’s Mission is to create Tech Communities of practice where the appropriate use of technology creates opportunities for the Youths leading to Sustainable Community Development with a focus at integrating technology in day-to-day community development interventions for the well being of all the youths.Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) are widely being adopted across every industry sector in the world. From health care to energy, from manufacturing to agriculture, etc. Our need for promoting the utilization of ICTs at all levels of community development is to increase youth engagement in implementing the UN Sustainable Development Goals.By reaching out to youth with key technologies, we are playing a pivotal in providing pathways from education to employment. By understanding Labor Market trends, YITEDEV is offering viable solutions that tackle youth unemployment within the Ugandan economy.With ICTs playing a crucial role in applications across the world and at either end of the development spectrum, and with such a high impact on young people, their explicit reference in such community development strategies is essential.While access to technology and associated electronic content has significantly changed the lives of many young people in developed countries, this is not always the case for those in less developed countries like Uganda. Access to ICTs such as computers, mobile phones and the Internet, especially broadband, remains a challenge for youth in the developing world. In addition, the cost of ICT access (mobile phones and Internet) is much higher as a proportion of per capital income in these particularly disadvantaged countries.

    HIFA envisions a world where every person will have access to the healthcare information they need to protect their own health and the health of others."Every day thousands of children and adults die needlessly because they do not receive basic life-saving interventions - interventions that are often locally available but are simply not provided due to indecision, delays, misdiagnosis, and incorrect treatment. Many would still be alive today if those responsible for their care had access to basic healthcare information."

We thought Africa has come a long way to continue having plight stories talked about it, how about we change the perception that many render our continent to be, but rather a Blissful Africa, having vibrant youths that are the agents & leaders of positive change in their countries with Uganda serving as an model, that is exactly what we are doing through this organization. We are going to create all kinds of networks throughout the communities where we shall work to build a Blissful nation and the continent at large. Indented to nurturing human potential, the capacity-building organization is made up of vibrant youths who exist to help youths and communities to access the skills, tools, and information they need to get going and do what they do best. We're about building effective and lasting relationships with people and organizations from all sectors so that together we can lend a helping hand and allow the thousands of Youths in localities across Uganda to reach their full potential.
