About us
Slum Youth Rehabilitation and Development Organization (SYRADO) Uganda is a not-for-profit organization that empowers adolescent girls, women & youth , promotes sexual and reproductive health, education and slum skilling, economic empowerment and peace among youth in slum areas in urban and peri-urban areas in Uganda. This is aimed at improving livelihood. SYRADO is contributing towards SDG 4; 4.4. which says- By 2030, sustainably increase the number of youths and adults who have relevant skills including technical and vocational skills for employment, decent jobs, and entrepreneurship. It is also working towards SDG 3: 3.6- that strengthens the prevention and treatment of substance abuse, including narcotic drug abuse and harmful use of alcohol. SYRADO is focusing on slum youth because they are vulnerable yet they can contribute a big labor force to the country. They are most vulnerable to HIV and AIDS, unwanted pregnancies, prostitution, unemployment, and abuse. All these are breeding factors for high crime rates, drug abuse and poor health among the youth. SYRADO believes that when youth are empowered with vocational skills, conflict resolution skills, rehabilitation, and reproductive health awareness, they will be able to improve their lives as well as meaningfully contribute to the economic development of the country. SYRADO works with youth from 13 to 24 years. These include Adolescent Girls and Young Women (AGYW), male youth and children in and out of school. OUR VISION Rehabilitated, educated and Employable youth in the slum areas in Uganda! MISSION To empower slum youth with vocational skills, health awareness and conflict resolution measures for better livelihood. SYRADO is focused on four components including the following; Vocational skills enhancement, rehabilitation, leadership, and mentoring and reproductive health.
