ActionAid International (Uganda)

ActionAid is a global movement of people working together to further human rights and defeat poverty for all.

ActionAid is a non-political, non-religious organisation that has been working in Uganda since 1982 to end poverty and injustice.

ActionAid is among the leading anti-poverty agencies working directly with over one million poor and excluded people in 50 districts of Uganda.

ActionAid focuses on tackling the root causes of the injustice of poverty rather than just meeting people’s immediate needs.

The organisation is primarily concerned with defending and raising awareness of human rights, be they economic, social, cultural, civil or political.

Employing local staff in its work, the organisation supports projects and programmes that promote the interests of poor and excluded people at all levels.

Recognising that poverty cannot be fought single-handedly, ActionAid works with others in the fight to end poverty and injustice.

In Uganda, Oxfam’s focus is on supporting those affected by conflict, lobbying for peace, rights of nomadic herders, and livelihoods.

Uganda is faced with diverse challenges. In the north, recent decades have seen communities terrorized by the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA), forcing hundreds of thousands of people from their homes and destroying trade and livelihoods.

Pastoralist communities in the northeast have suffered years of neglect and an unfettered flow of arms through the porous borders with Sudan and Kenya. In the lush, mountainous southwest, climate change is posing serious threats to people’s access to water and farmland.

Title: Citizens’ engagement to improving maternal health service delivery in Bujumba sub-county

Background: The project is implemented in the four parishes of Mulabana, Bwendero, Bujumba and Bunyama in Bujumba sub-county. These parishes were selected because of poor access and delivery of maternal health services in the district.  KADINGO is an umbrella advocacy organization focused on empowering the community to demand for improved access and quality maternal health service delivery.

The Project: KADINGO’s Mwananchi intervention is engaged advocating for improvement and access to maternal healthcare services in Kalangala district.  The project initiation involved community sensitization about the new initiative and consultations with the people to identify issues of concern to them that would be subject of discussion during the stakeholder dialogue meetings. This was followed by the identification of two Parish Health Monitors from each parish. They were trained on methods of collecting maternal health information and monitoring tools designed by KADINGO.

Community Empowerment for Creative Innovation (CECI Uganda) is a Refugee-led Community-based Organization founded in May 2017 to address ethnic cleavages, conflict tensions, and other challenges refugees face, such as poverty, unemployment, and cultural intolerance. We prevent, reduce, and transform violent conflicts in refugee communities through locally-led innovations in peacebuilding, education, livelihood, and environment driven by local needs. We empower youth, women, and girls with the tools to build resilience, prevent conflicts, rebuild livelihoods, and participate actively in local leadership, peacebuilding, and development.

Since then, CECI Uganda has been working with over 58,524 youth and youth to stop violence and increase social cohesion in refugees and host communities in West Nile, Uganda. We campaigned against all forms of hate speech and incitement to violence and provided community-based and data-driven solutions to the problem of hate speech, disinformation, and misinformation. We have also strengthened local peace structures to respond to and prevent conflicts, rebuilt the livelihoods of 5,951 youth, women and girls, increased their safety and wellbeing, and improved access to education for over 5000 children.

With the outbreak of COVID-19 in Uganda, CECI Uganda was one of the first responders to the COVID-19 crisis in refugee settlements, mobilizing resources, spearheading public health awareness, increasing access to online education and personal protective equipment, and providing livelihood support, reaching over 9389 children, youth, women, the elderly, and people with disabilities in 2020 alone.
