Description:
Permaculture Research Institute of Uganda (PRI-Uganda) is a non-profit organization whose major objective is to empower individuals and communities to undertake sustainable agriculture and culture using the permaculture approach. PRI-Uganda was born after understanding the agriculture dynamics and challenges of miss-use of the scarce resources, unsustainable agricultural practices, low income among small holder farmers , households and decreased youth participation in Agriculture in Uganda. The Mission of PRI-Uganda is to work with individuals and communities country wide, to expand the knowledge and practice of integrated, sustainable agriculture and culture using the whole-systems approach of permaculture design. This will provide solutions for permanent abundance by training local people to become leaders of sustainable development in their communities and countries.
