What We Do

Children’s rights play an important role in The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Though the goals focus on sustainable development, they are linked to human rights generally, and the rights of children specifically. Children are affected by all of the SDGs, whether poverty (Goal 1), hunger (Goal 2), health (Goal 3), education (Goal 4), gender equality (Goal 5), climate change (Goal 13), or violence against children (Goal 16.2)

Hence the Rights of Children:
• The Right to a Childhood
• The Right to be Educated
• The right to be heard
• The Right to good Feeding and Nutrition
• The Right to be Healthy
Our Major work therefore includes:
 Promoting and Advocating for the Rights of Children in our Communities
 Training caregivers, Child Social workers, families, Teachers, Schools, and Communities in matters regarding Child rights, inclusion, laws, and protection through our mobile services and Projects.
 Supporting Vulnerable Children and Child headed families through the Rights to Education and Inclusion

Our Mission Statement

CPAM Uganda is an accredited independent provider of child and youth welfare services, a service provider of daycare centers for children, guardianship, and care association. Guided by the Christian principles of caring for one another” Mt 25:40 “What you did to the least of My Brothers and Sisters. You did too for me” CPAM Uganda is actively committed to protecting and supporting young people and their families.

As a social service organization, we help children to recognize their rights and roles and support Caregivers, Teachers and Parents, and stakeholders in Child-related matters on how to help the Children better   In our actions, we are not bound by party politics or religious affiliation. Our aim is to provide the best possible help at the best possible time in the best possible place.

Our concern is to create the framework conditions for a successful Child development process for children, young people, and adults. With our work, we contribute to improving the life chances of disadvantaged people and those at risk of exclusion.

For us, every successful offer of advice, support, and encouragement means that the future becomes possible:

 Child protection is our top priority. We take a clear stand for the protection and rights of children, adolescents, and young adults.

Our Image

We see the human being as a holistic, self-reliant being endowed with talents in the context of his personal experiences and living conditions as well as his social environment. Man is oriented towards growth and development and possesses his own abilities and skills for change. He depends on social relationships and strives for recognition, love, and community. We recognize the uniqueness of each person and treat him with respect for his personality and life situation. We perceive him and take him seriously and respect his wishes and will.

Taking responsibility

We accept the challenges that arise from the situation of our target groups. 
We achieve this by

  • Taking into account social developments and trends, including contemporary pedagogical, economic, psychological, sociological, and legal findings
  • In justified cases, creating necessary offers even in the case of initially deficit financing if the overall economic situation of the association permits this
  • Offer and take advantage of opportunities for further training and reflection.
  • Endure and deal with conflicts for the benefit of our target groups, partners, and employees
  • Regularly reviewing our positions through Research, Training questioning, and debate

Based on our tried-and-tested concepts and incorporating current expertise, we develop needs-based and contemporary offerings. Our diversity creates synergy effects, bundles expertise, and enables a broad spectrum of assistance offers. The quality of our work is characterized by high standards.
We achieve this by
– taking into account internal and, if necessary, external consulting as well as pedagogical, socio-political, and economic evaluation when starting, further developing, or terminating offers
– promoting internal cooperation and facilitating the internal and external exchange
– define standards, review them regularly, operationalize them
– if necessary, reject or terminate offers that make pedagogical sense, if the framework conditions are not sufficient or cannot be established in order to be able to carry out offers in the required quality.
