Our Programs​
The Solidarity Eden Foundation combines education and community-building & integration activities to support refugee youth in strengthening the skills they need to not only survive in the face of trauma, stress, displacement, and deprivation, but to become self-reliant and potential leaders in their community. Our four main program avenues combine to create an engaging, efficient, and cost-effective intervention.
Refugee Education Program
Our English Development Program delivers high-quality, trauma-informed, and engaging Functional Adult English classes completely free of charge for vulnerable refugees in Kampala. Designed to support daily learning, the classes focus on helping refugees improve their English proficiency, integrate more effectively, and build stronger connections with both refugee and non-refugee communities. Each year, the program directly impacts 250 refugees, with a minimum of 50% being women.
Creative Arts & Cultural Exchange Program
We organize creative arts, cultural, and heritage celebrations at our Refugee Resource Center, featuring music, drama, and poetry performances. These events explore themes such as diversity, identity, peacebuilding, cultural humility, social justice, power, and privilege, enabling participants to reflect on their personal experiences and social contexts.
Women on Wheels Vocational Training
The Women on Wheels Vocational Training Program is a comprehensive, trauma-informed initiative designed to equip vulnerable refugee women in Kampala with vocational skills, business literacy, and financial independence. Through intensive training in tailoring, combined with a practical 12-module curriculum in entrepreneurship and financial management, the program aims to transform the economic futures of refugee women and their households.
