The Speaker revealed her appreciation for the community’s activities while launching the Ismaili Civic Uganda (ICU) last week at Fairway Hotel. Mr. Azhar Jaffer, the community’s outreach Chairman at the Ismaili National Council for Uganda said the the Ismaili community in Uganda has been involved in a number of humanitarian good deeds all aimed at improving the lives of Ugandans.

“It is our focus to work on issues affecting our community, most specifically, on how to promote environmental issues and reduce our carbon footprint. If each of us makes small efforts to reduce our emissions, together as a society we will be doing a great justice to the world in which we live,” added Azhar.
