Christian Community Response for Social Development (CRSD) is a refugee-led, community-based, non-profit organization located in Pagirinya Refugee Settlement, Pagirinya Village, Logoangwa Parish, Dzaipi Sub- County, Adjumani District, Uganda. Established in 2017 by community-minded individuals, CRSD is non-denominational, non-political, and non-sectarian in nature.
CRSD was founded with a strong rural focus and a vision to empower both refugee and host communities in their efforts to overcome poverty, address human rights-related abuses, and promote positive cultural and traditional values. The organization targets critical community challenges including unemployment, teenage pregnancies and marriages, and the spread of preventable diseases, responding through community engagement, awareness campaigns, information sharing, and training programs. Led by a committed board of trustees and managed by a team of competent staff, CRSD collaborates closely with local stakeholders, development partners, and government agencies to implement sustainable, community-driven initiatives that improve livelihoods, uphold dignity, and foster social development.
