Our History

The idea of activating individual, communities and institutions to engage in initiatives that address local Socio-Environmental challenges was conceived by two Social Engagement (SE) professionals, Mr. Nuwamanya Muhambani Albert and Mr. Byanganga David, in the year 2018 as a result of their lived experiences and observations while working in the renewable energy space amongst the rural and urban communities in the Northern, Western, Eastern and West Nile regions of Uganda.

The myriad of Socio-Environmental challenges that were observed among local communities and the slow, weak, or lack of action, or malaise with which actions were implementation, prompted Nuwamanya and Byanganga to explore ways to mobilize and activate local efforts of individuals, Communities and Institutions to embrace interventions in a way that is impactful to their Socio-Environmental needs and challenges. Thus the need to adopt solution based engagements. This called for a paradigm shift in how individuals, communities and institutions engage in addressing Socio-Environmental issues, thus the establishment of SELLMARK in the year 2024 as an organization that would champion the new paradigm.
