About Company

Creative Initiative for Enterprise Development (CIfED) is a social Enterprise that was registered in 2013 to respond to challenges caused by escalating poverty levels faced by the households in the Teso sub. Currently CIfED has program presence in the Districts of Kaberamaido, Soroti and Serere. CIfED pursues integrated approaches that support communities to become more self-reliant and regain control of their own development. CIfED targets the most vulnerable farming communities especially women and youth who are faced with many social injustices including limited access to resources and no bargaining power. The community members are organized into Rural Producer Groups and after capacity building are registered at Sub County level
