The Swaziland Epilepsy Organization (SEO) is an organization advocating about the needs of the people living with epilepsy in Swaziland. The organization is the first of its kind in the country. It was formed in the year 2003, by the Patron, His Royal Highness Prince Bandzile and the national director, Mr. Mbusomuni Mahlalela.

The motive of earthling such an organization was the fact that in Swaziland there was no medication or attention given to those either living with or affected by the condition. Individuals living with epilepsy in Swaziland had to consult with South African doctors. This posed a huge peril as majorities of the epilepsy patients live below poverty line. As a consequence, majority of these patients were not able to access any medical attention, therefore unable to receive any proper support or even manage the condition properly. This eventually led to patients either being mentally challenged or physically disabled.

SEO finds its inspiration from doing development that is relevant and meaningful. It is good at promoting, supporting and protecting the rights of a child with epilepsy, expanding the freedom of choices of the child through recognizing the needs of the child’s guardian and building the capacity to the later to ensure they perform their roles effectively
