Description
Moroto literacy school in Moroto is situated outside the chief town of the Moroto District of north eastern Uganda, (west of Mount Moroto). It is home to the Karamajong people, a nomadic herding community (similar to the Masia). The area is a very unstable and instead of the traditional weapons the Karamajong carry Ak-47s. There is a high level of poverty and Moroto is far from the developed capital of Kampala.
The Literacy school was the first school that Abaana funded in Uganda, and was built in partnership with Fields of Life.
