- WHO WE ARE
A Pan-African organization that
listens, builds and measures.
ACSAIR works to support people, communities and organizations across Africa, solving real problems including poverty, hunger, climate change & environment sustainability , youth unemployment, weak access to education and health, child protection, gender inequality and the digital divide.
We take action by working with communities, local leaders, grassroots organizations and development partners to create real change in people’s lives, bringing them together to plan better, use evidence, act, learn and improve.
We use Statistics, AI, and Innovation Research as tools to understand needs, measure progress, make better decisions, guide action and improve effectiveness.
The Africa Food
Sustainability
Challenge 2026
A skills-based learning challenge built around our self-paced course “Mastering Food Waste Reduction in Africa” – for African youths, farmers, food handlers, sustainability professionals, students and anyone committed to improving food systems. Learn, demonstrate mastery and earn recognition.
- OUR CORE FOCUS AREAS
Practical areas where change is visible.
We work with people often left out of development including youth, women, children, farmers, persons with disabilities and underserved communities because their lives, like the issues they face, are connected.

Climate resilience, sustainable farming, food systems and stewardship of the environment we share.
02
Youth & Women Empowerment
Skills training, decent work and inclusive innovation that opens pathways to dignity and income.

Stronger services and social inclusion for the people most often left out of development.

- OPERATIONAL AREA
From Kampala, across the continet.
Our long-term goal is to work across the whole African continent including North, West, East, Central and Southern Africa. Headquartered in Kampala, Uganda, we work through partnerships, local teams and activities in different countries.
Every country and community is different. We do not use one fixed approach but we adapt to local culture, language, economy and need. Central planning meets local action, and a good idea from one community helps another a continent away.
- WHY WORK WITH ACSAIR
Close to communities. Serious about delivery.
Build the next chapter of African development with us.
