Videos in this website have been put together by children living in and around SOS Children’s Villages. They’ve captured their thoughts, opinions and ideas to present a new perspective on Africa through their own eyes. The result is this evolving ‘Our Africa’ educational resource.

SOS Children has been working in Uganda since 1989.  There are currently two Children’s Villages in Uganda and one more near complete.  Find out more about SOS children in Uganda.

Apart from making videos for this resource, each group of young people has made its own short film (sometimes more than one) on subjects that matter to them.  Each film reveals quite a lot about their lives, their life experiences and their aspirations for their future.
