The work is mostly supported through donations from individuals.

Donations are handled in the UK by a registered charity, Friends of JOY Goat Development Programme Uganda (JOY Goats for short).

A brief History

Partnerships

The long-term aim of the Programme is to develop a breed of dairy goat which is productive but also adapted to Ugandan conditions. This is only feasible if there is a large breeding population - larger than we are able to create through our own farmers’ groups.

So we look for other organisations who will work with us in this programme. This can be Farmers’ groups, local CBOs, national NGOs or international NGOs.

JOY Youth Training Centre

JOY GDP grew out of JOY Youth Training Centre, which included a demonstration farm of dairy goats. The expertise that had been built up on the farm and associated community projects enabled us to set up the Goat Development programme in 2009.
