In August 2015, after receiving a generous seed grant from Kosmos, we were able to run our first training camp for ‘Uniters’ on the shores of Lake Victoria, Uganda. This brought together students from across Uganda to learn new skills for leading community organizing, empowering student social action, and facilitating global collaborations in order that they return to their respective university campuses to lead UniTED Groups as ‘Uniters’. Our ambition at the outset, therefore, was to create a new generation of global changemakers.
