Empowering Youth, Transforming Communities.
Guiding over 10,000 + underserved young people through education, health awareness, and skills training creating ripple effects that transform entire communities.
If We Don't Act Now, Another Generation could be left behind.
We were once students who felt the system was stacked against us.
So we built IUSYA—to give back, lead forward, and empower the next generation.
We Help Youth Become the Change They Wish to See.
No one should feel helpless just because of their background, tribe, ability, or gender.
At IUSYA, we fight exclusion with empowerment.
We exist to unite, equip, and amplify youth across Uganda—especially those who are overlooked.
We are creating a ripple
effect of sustainable
community change.

Iganga University Students and
Youth Association (IUSYA)
The Iganga University Students and Youth Association (IUSYA) is a non-governmental, voluntary membership-based youth organization registered in Uganda since 2017. Formed by a group of university students in Iganga District, IUSYA works to uplift vulnerable and marginalized populations through grassroots youth leadership.
Our programs address critical challenges such as lack of access to sexual and reproductive health education, youth unemployment, gender-based exclusion, and the impacts of climate change. We work directly in schools, communities, and partner networks to deliver sustainable programs at scale.
Our work is governed by a leadership team of experienced volunteers, each trained in development work, monitoring and evaluation, financial accountability, and ethical implementation. We are committed to data-backed, community-informed solutions that create measurable social change.
