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.
Vision: An empowered community that promotes equitable utilization and sustainable governance of natural resources for poverty alleviation and social transformation.
Mission: To implement research and advocacy initiatives that empower local communities to demand for transparency, accountability and participation in decision making.
Objectives:
- Relevant and timely policy research across the organization’s programmatic strands
- Advocacy that fosters the utilization and implementation of CRED research and novel ideas in policy formulation and implementation
- Capacity building initiatives and provision of legal advise to empower citizens to demand accountability and good governance in public affairs
- Build and strengthen CRED as a relevant and credible institution working with and for communities at all levels.
