IGRAO Celebrates Uganda Independence Day
IGRAO joins the people of Uganda in celebrating Independence Day , Friday, 9th October 2026.

As a refugee led organization founded by refugees who have found a home in Uganda, we are deeply grateful to the Government and people of Uganda for opening their doors to people fleeing conflict and hardship. Uganda has given many of us not only shelter, but also an opportunity to rebuild our lives, educate our children, develop our skills, and contribute to our communities.

“Our existence is a testimony to what can grow when people are welcomed, given hope, and allowed to turn their challenges into opportunities to serve others.”

On this special day, we celebrate Uganda and reaffirm our commitment to working hand in hand with Ugandans to build resilient communities where refugees and host communities can thrive together.

Happy Independence Day, Uganda!

People and Nature Thriving in Harmony.
