Community Development Services

Organization Description: 

Community Development Services, (CODES) is a grass root based organization in Uganda dedicated to rural development through propagating the self-reliant participatory methodology in crop farming, livestock, afforestation, micro enterprise and appropriate technology promotion, and HIV prevention. CODES intervention strategies are based on a non-discriminative membership in ethnicity, religion or political inclinations founded on local Farmers Support Groups (FSGs), Community Based Organizations (CBOs), Non Governmental Organization (NGO), networks and administrative structures within local communities. The living standards of rural women, youth and children can be improved through better land use practices and increasing knowledge base in farming and vocational skills thus creating opportunities for sustainable social-economic development.
