    fellowship

      Uganda has no universal social security system for older persons.
      Over one million seniors in Uganda live in poverty, loneliness, isolation and hopelessness.
      Due to poverty, rural urban migration, conflict, illness, death of the middle generation, the social structure of children taking care of their parents in old age has collapsed.
      Older persons are among the poorest in Uganda with 64% of them living on less than US$ 1 per day.
