Who Are We

Chairman CPA Stanslous Keya, Ps J. Mukobe and CEO Joel Dicharry on a mission to strengthen relationship with the Government

Sight Africa Initiative (SAI) is a National registered NGO with a primary focus on improving health (Ovcs children), Nutrition, Water, and Environmental Sanitation (WES) conditions for the rural and urban poor, including the less fortunate and vulnerable groups in our midst.
Health, Nutrition and Water and Environmental Sanitation (WES) are major determinants impacting quality of life. In many developing countries, access to quality and affordable health care, a balanced diet, safe water, and basic sanitation is a challenge for the poor and disadvantaged, especially for women and children. SAI works with a wide range of stakeholders such as national and state governments, development partners, civil society organizations and the private sector to design, manage, facilitate sustainable change in the lives of millions of people.
 

HNWES was a key focus for Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and remains so within Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We realize that investments in this sector, focusing on the underserved, have a large impact on the well-being of the communities and transform their lives. To maximize the impact of health investments, we have integrated, multi-sectoral, innovative approaches to strengthen health systems, policy design, planning, service delivery, demand generation, social behavior change communication (SBCC), human resources strengthening, health financing, nutrition, water, sanitation and hygiene services.
