LightForce International has worked in Lira, Northern Uganda, since January 2004 initially working in the displaced peoples camps at the height of the rebel insurgency which devastated people’s lives. After a holding peace was in place, those displaced moved back to their villages—rebuilding their homes and working their land. LightForce International supported the return process and worked with communities with special emphasis on the education and health sector. LightForce has enjoyed partnerships with World Food Programme, UNICEF and Memisa Belgium. Since 2007, we have purchased land and developed projects in Telela, Omito Parish Lira. We employ over 70 local people to support the running of our projects which include: Nursery, Primary School Agricultural & Vocational School, Children’s Village, Visitors centre, Community Health Centre. HIV widows groups. We farm 140 acres with a mixture of crops and livestock. Our aim is to provide education and sustainability for our projects.
