About MWSAU

Migrant Workers Support Association Uganda (MWSAU) is a Ugandan migrant worker support organization created to protect, support and empower Ugandans working abroad.

MWSAU provides free membership registration, member numbers, emergency reporting, basic support, welfare coordination, advocacy, guidance and a secure member dashboard for Ugandan migrant workers before, during and after their employment journey abroad.

Our goal is simple: to ensure that no Ugandan migrant worker faces an emergency alone.

Why MWSAU Was Created

Every year, thousands of Ugandans travel abroad seeking better employment opportunities. While many succeed, others face exploitation, workplace abuse, unpaid wages, detention, medical emergencies, deportation, repatriation challenges or become stranded without immediate support.

MWSAU was created to provide an organized support system that connects migrant workers with emergency coordination, welfare assistance, advocacy, trusted guidance and family communication support when help is needed most.

Our Mission

To protect and support Ugandan migrant workers abroad through free membership, emergency coordination, welfare support, advocacy, information sharing and trusted guidance.

Our Vision

A future where every Ugandan working abroad is connected to a reliable support system and can access assistance, dignity and protection in times of need.
