MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR
Upper Nile Kalaazar Eradication Association was founded in 2002 in Dingkar, Nasir County of Upper Nile State. UNKEA was one of the Community based organization engaged in the development and eradication of Kalaazar and Poverty.

Throughout history, the goals and objectives of the organization have remained unaffected despite the hard situation in operation areas during the civil war in Sudan.
