Welcome to 3H Alliance

We are a grassroots Indigenous women’s organization founded in 2021 by a team of Indigenous Women Human Rights Defenders from the Batwa, Benet, and Basongora communities of Uganda. We started small, just a handful of women, meeting under trees and in village homes, standing together in our own communities. From those humble beginnings, we have grown steadily extending our support to Indigenous and vulnerable women across different communities throughout Uganda. For too long, Indigenous women and their families have been pushed to the edges, our voices ignored, our ancestral lands taken and our rights unprotected. We face double discrimination because we are Indigenous, and we are women. We face gender-based violence, environmental destruction, a changing climate, and digital exclusion, and we are often left out of decisions that shape our lives including taking on leadership roles.

We are changing that. We stand for justice in all its forms by advocating for our rights, our lands, our safety and our healing. We build from the ground up, Batwa, Benet, Basongora as one.

What 3H Stands For

Her Voice

As Indigenous women, we lead, speak, and decide. We claim our place at every table. No one speaks for us except us.

Her Land

Our forests, mountains, and plains are not property, they are our life, our heritage, our future. We defend them as guardians.

Her Rights

This stands for our dignity, safety, equality, and justice. Free from violence. Protected from criminalization. Included in every space. Upholding our rights under UNDRIP the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.

Our Programs

Grounded in UNDRIP. Built by defenders. Grown from grassroots beginnings.

With 3H Alliance, Justice must heal, not just fight. Standing on the frontlines leaves marks, we know this firsthand. Since 2021, we have gathered to rest and renew together. We create safe, healing spaces one for Batwa, one for Benet, one for Basongora where women find rest, sisterhood, and renewal. We practice collective care because we cannot build a fair future if we are broken.

The land does not belong to us; we belong to the land. We began by defending our own home territories. Now we stand with communities across Uganda facing eviction, land-grabbing, or exclusion from conservation areas. We map and document our ancestral territories, forests, mountains, and plains. We teach our communities their legal rights including customary land rights. We build sustainable livelihoods that honor our traditions without harming our environment.

"If we lose our land, we lose ourselves. We will not let that happen."

The climate is changing and so are we. Indigenous women are the first affected by changing rains, droughts, and uncertainty yet we hold the oldest and best wisdom for living in balance with nature. We combine traditional knowledge with practical new skills helping communities grow food, save water, and adapt. What began as shared wisdom among neighbors has grown into a program reaching villages across regions.

"Our ancestors survived great changes. Their wisdom guides us. Our unity protects us."
