About
Luigi Giussani Foundation
Luigi Giussani Foundation is an indigenous for impact organisation that has for the last 17 years
been responding to educational challenges in Uganda through research and capacity building at
all levels of education.
We journey towards this goal with learners, teachers and other
school stakeholders through critical thinking pedagogies, continuous Teacher Education Professional Development programmes, innovative research and through addressing critical areas of education such as early grade education and education in emergencies. We are also involved in advancing gender-responsive education through gender equity in training
interventions and tackling youth unemployment through skilling programmes.
We employ a multifaceted approach in the education field because we are passionate about learning that produces resilient, responsible and self-aware individuals whose thoughts and actions contribute to their good and that of society.
