Savings collectives in Uganda were first established in late 2002 when the Indian, South African and Kenyan Federations began to work with the Uganda Government to design and implement citywide slum upgrading programmes. Since that time, the National Slum Dwellers Federation has grown to over 30,000 members in the cities of Kampala, Arua, Jinja, Kabale, Mbale, and Mbarara, and has successfully negotiated with government to secure land for housing development and resettlement. Actogether Uganda was founded in September 2006 to provide continuous support and technical assistance to the Federation.
