About Us

Championing Education since 2017

Welcome to ZEDO AID Uganda! ZEDO AID is a community-driven initiative committed to reducing school dropout rates in government-aided schools. Our program supports volunteer teachers who work directly within schools to close learning gaps among at-risk learners by offering targeted remedial lessons in English and Mathematics, particularly in pivotal classes. Recognising the resource limitations that many government schools face, the Zero Dropout (ZEDO) Initiative was founded to unite key community stakeholders in empowering vulnerable learners to remain in school and succeed. Our efforts are anchored in our 4C Strategy—a holistic and sustainable approach to tackling school dropouts and ensuring meaningful educational outcomes:.

  • Creating Awareness – Promoting the importance of education and the risks of dropping out.
  • Capacity building for community leaders - Empowering leaders to address dropouts effectively
  • Community engagement–Uniting community pillars to collaboratively address school dropouts
  • Child Support-Targeted support to ensure positive learning outcomes.

Success Stories

Empowering Community Education Leaders

We have equipped over 200 local community education leaders with skills to foster school retention and reduce dropouts. Our focus is on empowering more head teachers, LC1 officials, and religious leaders to take action. By implementing practical strategies, they can create supportive environments for learners. Together, we aim to ensure every child has the opportunity to complete their education.
