Africa regional office
MRG's Africa Office in Kampala, Uganda came into existence in 2003 with the aim of promoting and facilitating MRG's work in the African continent. MRG always works closely with partners within each target country and having an African Office has strengthened MRG's presence in the region and led to the smooth implementation of various project activities and healthy, vibrant relations with MRG partners.
The governing body of the MRG - Africa Office is a board of three trustees who bring on board a rich and diverse experience in development work. The office has two full time and one part time staff and one programme intern.
