Mitigate Impacts of Human Rights Abuses on HRDs

The LGBTI and Sex Worker community are a vulnerable community and were more vulnerable during the Covid-19 total lockdown - they suffered intensified effects of the Covid-19 pandemic situation in Uganda. To that note, the project intends to mitigate the human rights abuses by putting in place measures to address mental health challenges arising from the effects of the pandemic using a peer-based approach.
