Our applied research and creative praxis spans community theatre, creative writing, photography, collage, pop music, and a diverse toolbox of qualitative methods including life story interviews, drawing diaries, participant observation, community and body mapping, and collaborative creative workshops.

Key co-created initiatives include Uganda’s first Creatives Climate Café, a Photography Masterclass in collaboration with the Uganda Press Photo Awards to visualise the urban climate crisis, multi-stakeholder forums on building climate resilient cities in Masaka and Gulu, ‘Piir’: a pop song written and performed by youth refugees from South Sudan, and pop-up exhibitions showcasing photography, collage, and creative writing.

Our Uganda projects centre the lived experiences and intersectional responses to the climate crisis of multiply marginalised communities. These include youth, women, sexual and gender diverse communities, older people, refugees, asylum seekers, formerly internally displaced people, adolescent mothers, and people with diffabilities.
