Under The Same Sun (UTSS) is a Christian charitable organization that promotes the wellbeing of persons with albinism (PWA) via education and advocacy. In most African countries, PWA are being discriminated against due to folklore arising around skin colour differences. In many of these countries "fatal discrimination" is occurring. (See External Links below for UTSS official website) == (People Like Us) report == In 2014, Under the Same Sun has issued its vision and goals in a report titled ''Watu Kama Sisi: Reducing Skin Cancer, Stigma and Violence Against Albinos in the Mara Region''.〔Morton, T. (2014) Watu Kama Sisi: Reducing Skin Cancer, Stigma and Violence Against Albinos in the Mara Region. Under the Same Sun〕 Regarding persecution and health awareness for albinos the purpose of the current project is to dispel any superstitions associated with albinism and the potential for persecution by facilitating workshops in the villages targeting nine key villages in the Mara village where albinos are most prominent: Bukumi, Bugoji, Bwai Kwitururu, Chimati, Chitare, Chumwi, Kataryo, Kiriba and Wanyere. Here the aims of UTSS sensitize communities to albinism to reduce stigma, discrimination and violence through the form of Educating communities about the facts and falsehoods surrounding albinism, and therefore subsequently increasing community understanding, acceptance and respect toward albinism and the people who are suffering from persecution due to their condition. UTSS also works on an educational level to provide ways children with albinism with low vision can improve learning abilities and overall aiming to de-stigmatize albinism and facilitate social inclusion and safety of albinos in their families and local community.〔
