In 1987, a group of dynamic women entrepreneurs established the Uganda Women Entrepreneurs Association Limited (UWEAL) as a non-governmental organization whose vision was to address gender disparities by enhancing and empowering the economic status of women in Uganda.

Today, UWEAL's mission is to economically empower women entrepreneurs to create wealth through business diagnostics, capacity building, resource mobilization, institutional development, networking and advocacy.
