JEEP is a NGO founded in 1983 working for a green Uganda with an environmentally safe and clean habitat for the present and future generations. Biomass accounts for 93% of the entire energy used, our mission is to combat environmental destruction and conserve natural resources. We have training and awareness seminars on conservation.
