Who we are
Civic Response on Environment and Development (CRED) is a non-partisan, not-for profit, public interest oriented policy research and advocacy organization registered under Ugandan laws and based in Kampala-Uganda. CRED addresses the disconnect between policy documents and national level interventions with the reality in communities. We achieve this by implementing a range of activities with the view of empowering and facilitating the local people to demand for reforms and rule of law.
