The Six Green Principles

Our Core Values & Political Foundation

Ecological Wisdom

We recognize that human beings are part of the natural world and that we must respect the ecological systems that sustain all life. We advocate for policies that protect biodiversity, natural resources, and ecological balance.

As Uganda's green political forum, we understand that environmental protection is not separate from human well-being, but fundamental to it.

  • Protection of Uganda's biodiversity and ecosystems
  • Sustainable management of natural resources
  • Climate change adaptation and mitigation
  • Environmental education and awareness

Social Justice

We believe in creating a society that is just, equitable, and inclusive. We advocate for human rights, gender equality, and the elimination of poverty, discrimination, and social inequality in Uganda.

Every Ugandan deserves equal opportunities and dignity, regardless of their background, gender, or economic status.

  • Universal access to quality education and healthcare
  • Gender equality and women's empowerment
  • Economic justice and fair distribution of resources
  • Protection of human rights and civil liberties

Non-Violence

We are committed to non-violence and peaceful conflict resolution. We reject violence as a means of achieving political goals and advocate for dialogue, cooperation, and peaceful democratic processes.

Peaceful change is not only possible but essential for building a sustainable and just society.

  • Peaceful political activism and protest
  • Dialogue and consensus-building
  • Conflict resolution and reconciliation
  • Rejection of all forms of violence

Sustainability

We promote sustainable development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. This includes sustainable agriculture, renewable energy, and responsible resource management.

Sustainability is not just about the environment—it's about creating lasting prosperity for all Ugandans.

  • Renewable energy and clean technology
  • Sustainable agriculture and food security
  • Circular economy and waste reduction
  • Green infrastructure and urban planning

Participatory Democracy

We believe in participatory democracy that empowers citizens to have a direct voice in decisions that affect their lives. We advocate for transparent, accountable governance and active citizen participation.

True democracy goes beyond elections—it requires active citizen engagement and transparent governance.

  • Transparent and accountable government
  • Citizen participation in decision-making
  • Free and fair elections
  • Protection of civil liberties and freedoms
