Founded in 1992, the Mukono Multi-purpose Youth Organisation (MUMYO) is a Uganda Non-Governmental Organization dedicated to various issues aimed at promoting the rights and well being of the young men and women, especially in the rural areas. It was formed by a group of concerned men and women who found it necessary to form an organization that would unite the youth and facilitate the exchange of views, information and experiences for social transformation and economic development. MUMYO recognizes the need to address the economic, social and cultural rights of the youth and children in accordance with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948) and other international covenants on human rights, proclaimed and agreed that every individual is entitled to all human rights and freedoms, without distinction of any kind, such as, race, sex colour, religion, political or other opinion or status. It was also formed on the belief that the young people are the leaders of the future generations, if nurtured well, they can become useful and productive members of the society. They are flexible, full of vibrant ideas and willing to learn, if properly motivated, guided and facilitated, they can help themselves and the other members of the society.
