The Deputy Director General of the Internal Security Organization (ISO), Colonel Emmy Katabazi, has thanked the World Vision for upholding the standards of non-governmental organizations (NGOs), contrary to other organizations.

Col. Katabazi said this while addressing a team of 30 officials from World Vision at Brovad Sands Lodge, Sese Islands, in Kalangala on Tuesday, September 10, 2024.

“I am happy with World Vision as an individual and as an organization because most of the NGOs do not do what is written on paper but the World Vision does. So on behalf of the Government of Uganda, I thank you,” Col. Katabazi said.

He also noted that World Vision activities such as supporting sectors of education and health have transformed society.

“Your core activity touches the people’s transformation. Your activities touch on the process of transforming society. By supporting education, you are increasing the knowledge of society, which changes their means of production, and that is what is called transformation,” he added.

The Deputy Director General called upon the World Vision leadership, led by Richard Rumsey, the Program Quality Director at World Vision, to train the staff in the core values of life in order to be of better service to the people of Uganda.

He maintained that regardless of the misconception of ISO, the organization’s core value is to defend the country from the enemy and to maintain the NRM government in power.

World Vision is a non-governmental organization whose goal is to ensure all children live life in all its fullness by reaching out to remote and hard-to-reach areas to find solutions to health and nutrition, education, child protection, resilience and livelihood, water, and sanitation challenges.
