Empathy is the key to success for non-profit organizations. No other medium accomplishes this better than visual storytelling – and that’s because nothing can match a video’s authenticity. 

Videos help to communicate your company’s mission, show the impact that you are having and/or promote a specific campaign. Showcasing volunteers’ hard work, raising money for a campaign or explaining internal workings and results are just a few examples on how to showcase your projects and build brand awareness to the wider public.

The Non-Profit/NGO industry calls for action; not just on the part of donors and volunteers, but on the part of the non-profit organization to stand out and clearly articulate their mission.  We have every in our arsenal to do everything to help you achieve your campaign goals.

Here’s a quick rundown of how our non-profit video process works:

It’s absolutely critical you know what you want to achieve with your video outreach efforts. After all, if you don’t have goals, how do you measure your success? Now that we know your “what,” we need to identify your “who.” So, who is your target market? 

Goals

Next, we reverse-engineer your objectives to identify the pieces needed to reach your “destination. This then becomes the foundation for crafting your brand’s voice and style.

Plan & Message

This is where we combine our collaborative vision, put all the pieces together and bring your story to life. 

Implementation

Once the final product is complete, we stay by your side to help you execute everything and ensure your videos are successful. When needed, we make improvements, so you see ongoing returns from all your outreach efforts.

UK - UGANDA Green Growth

The future is green. Innovation is key to developing the green technologies needed to tackle the climate change challenge the world currently faces. Through the development of clean energy comes the innovation of smart green businesses and smart green living. The UK aims to accelerate the commercialization of innovative clean energy technologies and ease adoption in business communities and day-to-day people activities.

The Nyamagasani hydropower plants utilize the hydropower potential of the river Nyamagasani as it drops 330m in a series of rapids, near the village of Kyarumba in the foothills of the Rwenzori mountains in Western Uganda. The project is connected to the Ugandan national grid with a contribution of about 21 megawatts.

Climate change is one of humanity's most urgent and complex challenges. It affects every aspect of life on Earth, from ecosystems and biodiversity to health and livelihoods. To address this global crisis, we need innovative solutions that can reduce greenhouse gas emissions, enhance resilience, and promote sustainable development. This is where climate financing plays a crucial role. It can help create bankable and sustainable projects that can deliver positive environmental and social impacts while generating economic returns. One example of such a project is the Energy Catalyst program by Innovate UK.

Energy Catalyst is an Innovate UK program that accelerates the innovation needed to end energy poverty in Africa and Asia through financial and advisory support, building strategic partnerships, and uncovering new insights. Energy Catalyst supports the development of technologies and business models that can improve lives.

Energy Catalyst is an example of how climate financing can play a crucial role in addressing the global challenge of climate change by creating bankable and sustainable projects that can benefit both people and the planet.

A Kampala, Uganda-based company that provides affordable electric two-wheelers to low-income motorcycle-taxi drivers facing vulnerability to fuel price fluctuation. Boda-bodas provide transportation for 60% of the population and this means heavy carbon emissions. Zembo tackles this problem and aims to transform the boda-boda sector by helping the sector reduce its environmental impact with electric motorcycles.

Urban planning is a significant aspect of Uganda's green growth development strategy (UGGDS) launched in 2017, as it involves designing and managing cities that are resilient, inclusive, and low carbon. Urban planning can help Uganda address some of its challenges such as rapid urbanization, environmental degradation, poverty, and inequality. Some of the opportunities for urban planning in Uganda include developing green public transport systems, promoting mixed-use development and compact urban form, enhancing waste management and recycling systems, improving access to basic services and amenities, and protecting natural ecosystems and biodiversity.

The UK government has committed to invest up to £39 million (Shs185 billion) over four years in climate-smart jobs in Uganda, which will support climate-smart land management and services around agribusinesses.

 One of the success stories of Uganda's green growth development strategy (UGGDS) launched in 2017 is the transformation of Bugala Island, which was once one of the poorest districts in the country. Through a public-private partnership with InfraCo Africa, an infrastructure company called Kalangala Infrastructure Services (KIS) was established to provide safe access to the mainland, reliable electricity, and clean water to the island's residents. Today, Bugala Island is thriving thanks to KIS's interventions.

One of the key themes of the UK-UGANDA green growth partnership is Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA), which aims to increase the incomes and resilience of smallholder farmers by adopting practices and technologies that enhance productivity, reduce emissions, and adapt to climate change.

Climate Smart Agriculture & Market Development

To facilitate CSA, the UK government has funded a program called Northern Uganda - Transforming the Economy through Climate Smart Agriculture Market Development which works with private sector partners to identify and facilitate innovative business models and markets that benefit poor men and women as producers, consumers, suppliers, or employees while increasing their resilience to climate change. 

The project focuses on selected agricultural markets and provides technical assistance and brokering services to increase the flow of bankable proposals and investments in climate-smart agriculture. By stimulating sustainable and inclusive growth in northern Uganda's agricultural sector, NU-TEC MD contributes to the UK-Uganda green growth agenda.

Climate change adaptation and mitigation is a salient component of green growth and Uganda has demonstrated a remarkable commitment to its national climate change response. As the Uganda Vision 2040 stipulates, the climate change strategy is to prioritize national resilience through adaptation and mitigation. - Uganda Green Growth Development Strategy -

Climate Action Now

WWF’s mission is to stop the degradation of the planet’s natural environment and to build a future in which people live in harmony with nature, by conserving the world’s biological diversity, ensuring that the use of renewable natural resources is sustainable, and promoting the reduction of pollution and wasteful consumption.

By 2014, only 14% of Uganda’s population had access to electricity for lighting. 62% of our population who are mostly rural households, used kerosene lamps as well as candles and fuel wood for lighting.

In response to this challenge, in 2015, World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) Uganda commenced the implementation of the “Scaling-Up Rural Electrification using Innovative Solar Photo Voltaic Distribution Models project” with funding from the European Union (EU) and others.

Kalaz Media camped in the areas of Kasese, Rubirizi, Hoima, and Arua to capture stories of the beneficiaries of the solar project.
