LOCAL COMMUNITY
Iganga
is about 80 miles from the capital city of Uganda, Kampala. The organization
is helping rural women
in
Iganga gain skills in tailoring and intends to introduce computer literacy
and teach women on poultry
rearing. Being a rural community these women are very poor and most
of them have not gone to school or
are school dropouts. Those that have attained secondary level education
will greatly benefit from gaining
computer literacy. The women in these rural communities do not have
any skills to make them self-
supporting and are economically marginalized, subject to abuse, and
are at the same time vulnerable.
The organization's advocacy programme is done in every community.
