Uganda’s population is currently at 50 million and is expected to reach 85 million by 2050. With a median age of just 16.7 years, the country’s youth face significant challenges, including the fact that 35% of women give birth by age 18.

These numbers highlight the urgent need for sustainable development and opportunities for young people to thrive.

At Sembeza Africa, we believe that sports can be a powerful tool to address these challenges. By using sports to promote education, health, and gender equality, we provide a platform for young people, especially girls, to build confidence, develop leadership skills, and delay early pregnancies. Through structured sports programs, we aim to empower Uganda's youth, giving them the chance to shape a better future for themselves and their communities.
