Who We Are

Restless Communities is a non-governmental organization (NGO) in Uganda, registered as a company limited by guarantee and with the NGO Bureau. We work with underserved rural, peri-urban, and urban communities to strengthen the knowledge, skills, health, and opportunities people need to drive their own development.

We began in 2025 as the corporate social responsibility (CSR) arm of Farmore Limited, an agribusiness company committed to inclusive development and climate-smart agriculture. In 2026, Restless Communities registered as an independent, not-for-profit entity to expand its reach and impact.
