For people with disabilities in Uganda, there’s little medical care available. It’s often a long way to travel to see a doctor, and treatment is expensive. But an organization from Germany is providing those affected with orthopedic aids, as well as training specialists.

In Uganda, people with disabilities not only often live in great poverty, there’s also hardly any medical care available to them. For more than 10 years now, an organization from Usingen in the German state of Hesse has been providing people with prostheses and other orthopedic aids. In the small town of Kiyunga near the capital Kampala, ProUganda has set up a center with a modern orthopedic workshop and treatment rooms.
But not everyone can get there: The roads are uneven and it’s difficult for poor families to get to Kiyunga with their children. That’s why the team travels to rural areas in minibuses. In the trunk: wheelchairs, some delivered second-hand from Germany, some bought with donations.
The film accompanies members of the aid organization as they work with patients in Kiyunga, in the workshop and on missions in the region.
