RASD began in 2000 as a Community Based Organization
in Uganda. Within a few years RASD became a registered
Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) in Uganda, based in Nkokonjeru
and serving the communities in Mukono district. We operate with the
help of volunteers in Nkokonjeru and in May 2006 started working
with engineering students at Duke University.

RASD carries out its activities in the Mukono
District to facilitate people to live in healthy conditions, promote
sustainable environmental management, agriculture, provide safe
water, hygiene education and sanitation provision, facilitate
education training for skill acquisition, advocacy for gender issues
and good governance.
RASD carries out these activities through
educational seminars and "sensitization" activities to promote best
practices. We are currently constructing a centralized resource
center in Nkokonjeru to better carry out these activities. See
Our Work for more detailed information
about the RASD Resource Center and our current projects.
