Background
African Institute for Culture and Ecology [AFRICE] is a non-governmental organization that is registered in Uganda; and broadly focuses on working with communities to revive their knowledge and practices on food, land and ecosystems conservation. It was founded in 2016 and fully registered with the Uganda NGO board in 2017.
