Irreligion in Uganda is uncommon among Ugandans, as Christianity is the predominant faith.[1] Only 2.9% of Ugandans claim no religion.[2] Most Ugandans are considered religious and there is a great stigma attached to being a non-believer.[3][4]
A small group of atheists such as James Onen have set up organizations opposing witchcraft and superstitions in Uganda.[5][6][7]
In February 2015 BiZoHa, the world's first ‘free-thinker’ orphanage, was launched in the town of Mukhoy, Kasese district in western Uganda. The campaign to start the program was primarily funded by Zoltan Istvan and Hank Pellissier.[8][9]
