Support groups have been trained and equipped with necessary skills and knowledge in counselling, home based care, stigma and discrimination and IGAs among others. The project identified 175 OVCs though the parish health councils, Field assistants and community health educators. Parish leaders have been sensitised on their roles and accountabilities on issues relating to children’s rights, and issues of stigma and discrimination at the school and at home. There is notable responsibility and care for OVCS. Gender equality in the diocesan institutions, through awareness raising seminars was prioritized in an effort to ascertain gaps and/or actors influencing gender equality in the society. It also aimed at empowering women in groups not only by providing them with adequate and accurate HIV and AIDS information but also encouraging them to engage in a dialogue with men to minimise gender disparities between them and men.

The intervention should enable them to grow own food and provide for other needs of their household through sale of surplus production, hence setting them on the path of self sufficiency. The project thus, will capitalize on improving agricultural production and productivity to increase food availability, accessibility and utilization, as well as improve income for targeted beneficiaries. The goal is to contribute to reduce food insecurity and increase nutrition through better production and use of food by 800 beneficiaries in Pader districts by January 2010. The implementation of this objective is expected to results into increased agricultural production of 800 targeted returning beneficiaries and displaced households and empower beneficiaries (i.e. mothers, children, elderly and PLWHAs) with the skills and knowledge to improve their nutrition and hygiene practices. This should result into the adoption of health seeking behaviours and motivation to live healthier lives among target households. The project methodologies will include; communal support through group formation; lobbying for increased land access; provision of dedicated and ongoing extension services to farmers; shared use of oxen; the introduction of modern or improved technologies including drought-resistant seed varieties; training farmers in skills of post harvest handling such as timely harvest and proper processing and storage; and training in nutrition and hygiene to improve food utilization for direct and indirect beneficiaries with special focus on PLWHA, children and lactating mothers.

This is a joint initiative of Justice & Peace Commission Uganda, Community Development Resource Network and CAFOD. A joint team of staff nominated by each of the three organizations (CAFOD, CDRN, and JPC) participated in the study with the guidance of a consultant and will present the findings of the research in two districts of Karamoja – namely Moroto and Kotido The study will be conducted in all the 5 districts of Karamoja region, namely Moroto, Kotido, Abim, Kaboong and Nakapiripirit Districts. The major focus of the study will be the understanding of the ongoing peacebuilding, livelihoods and risk reduction and other development efforts – their effectiveness, gaps, challenges and achievements.

Due to increased frequency and destruction of raiding, cattle keeping is no longer the major source of livelihood for most Karamoja people, hence the locals have resorted to agriculture despite unreliable climatic patterns in the region. These non-sustainable means of livelihoods influenced by cattle raiding and changing climatic conditions has predetermined the poverty levels in the region rendering the locals dependant on food aid for sustainability. Other underlying issues including high infant mortality rate, short life expectancy, high illiteracy and high prevalence of conflicts have also contributed greatly to people's vulnerability to poverty. A conflict analysis conducted by SSD staff coupled with the research conducted by CAFOD, Uganda national Justice and Peace Commission and Community Development Resource Network identified poverty, high levels of illiteracy, frequent droughts, lack of preparedness and low capacities to cope with drought, readily available guns, poor governance and negative cultural practices as causes to the volatile situation in the region. Strategies of how to address these problems were also identified which is the foundation of SSD's integrated programme. The programme integrates activities in peacebuilding, livelihoods improvements and disaster risk reduction in the diocese of Moroto covering the districts of Nakapiripirit and Moroto in North eastern Uganda.

Research carried out in Karamoja area revealed the need to build community capacity to address peace and stability in the region , engagement in good governance for better services from their leaders, and the agencies working in the region, on education and children’s rights, health challenges and HIV/AIDS related issues as well as women’s rights. To be able to address the above conflict prevention and resolution a strong recommendation on networking activities between the Dioceses of Moroto and Kotido since they are addressing similar needs in terms of security community needs capacity gaps and environmental issues. NCCJP in its advisory capacity of the Uganda Episcopal Conference on matters of justice and peace envisions that in this three year cycle, focusing on Karamoja, civic competence and strong network of the area will be built, NCCJP will support the network activities as proposed and engagement of community in conflict resolution and transformation.

This expertise has been further enriched with programmes to enhance organisations’ ability to influence policies within which they operate through policy advocacy. CAFOD is currently working with CDRN providing linkage between the Civil Society Organisations and the Church in taking forward the Karimojong integrated programme work specifically towards enhancing the capacity of the Catholic Dioceses in Karamoja to fulfil their mandate. CDRN is in the process of documenting the experiences, lessons learnt, stories of change and challenges they have had in implementing the project in Karamoja. From regular monitoring and mid-term financial and narrative reports, this project has been successfully implemented and the partner is working with SSD Moroto to ensure remaining activities are implemented by end of December 2009. After the end of this project, CAFOD relationship with the partner will be maintained through the Action for Better Governance (ABG) programme in which CDRN is a resource partner for Uganda. The nature of partner’s work (i.e. capacity building for other civil society organisations), especially Karamoja region for CAFOD partners, requires extensive road travel which requires a stable field vehicle to manage. The biggest challenge at the moment for the partner is lack of a project vehicle necessary to support the project’s transport requirements which involves long distance travel, majorly hampered by the poor state of roads in the project region. CAFOD discussions with the partner agreed that the allocations for the year 2009/10 of £10,000 be given to the partner as CAFOD’s restricted contribution towards the purchase of the project vehicle. The partner was also encouraged to approach others for the balance of the vehicle cost. Towards this end, the partner has approached Cordaid and MS-Uganda as well as has included half the cost in a proposal submitted to EU in Uganda. The partner would share any responses from these with CAFOD.

This is a second year cycle of funding with CRY Uganda building on previous two year cycle from which CRY Uganda identified with the youth who were former raiders and formed peace groups with the aim of reaching out to their fellow youth who were involved in raiding activities. An earlier research in 2006 and 2007 revealed that former warriors were willing to convince their brothers to drop the gun and quit raiding to be encouraged, CRY offered support and capacity building in conflict management, peace building and re focus on alternative livelihood. The core activities by CRY in general include; peer training, dialogue, learning and talks, which the project focuses on utilising in order to bridge the missing link of communication, as sited from other peace building efforts by other agencies. The project involves empowering youth (former young warriors) as peace facilitators to be trained in areas of conflict transformation, peace communication, advocacy, debate & dialogue meetings , do no harm (conflict sensitive approaches to development), documentation, planning, vulnerability assessment, local resource mobilisation approaches and practices, youth programming, project management cycle, leadership and alternative livelihoods. It is envisioned that these enabled youth will go back to their communities and mobilize other youth to resort from raiding to alternative livelihoods. This has been evident in the first cycle of the project where community members testified to a great change being spread by the former warriors who had initially been written off as perpetual agents of violence. The project is making use of youth friendly methods, approaches and trainings, field-based hands-on practice. Participatory approaches such as peace theatres, community outreaches resource mapping for advocacy have been adopted and will continue to be used in the project because of their acceptance by target groups.

NHC is a Faith Based Organization providing care, treatment, and orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) services to HIV and AIDS infected and affected people in a radius of 21kms from Kampala City. The project will target OVCs infected with and affected by HIV and AIDS in the NHC program area. Some of the OVCs will be children of clients currently attending NHC clinics for HIV and AIDS services; others will be orphans of clients who have died; while many will be OVCs living in households that are affected by HIV and AIDS. The proposed project will address the problem of the increasing burden of OVCs on families and communities. The secondary beneficiaries will be caregivers and/or guardians. NHC has noted an increasing number of children whose future is shattered, deprived, devastated, traumatised, prejudiced and subjected to lives devoid of human interest. Generally, OVCs suffer from trauma, grief and depression associated with the impact of HIV and AIDS on their families; poor access to educational opportunities, health care and nutrition. They suffer social isolation, stigma and discrimination and struggle to meet basic needs including clothing and shelter. Youth (boys and girls) are particularly vulnerable to HIV infection due to lack of adequate and appropriate information and youth friendly prevention, care and support services among other factors. Gender balance will be considered in each case. Care givers (guardians, grandparents and family members) often live in abject poverty and lack basic HIV and AIDS knowledge and skills to prevent themselves from infection, and to provide proper care for children under their care. They are emotionally drained due to heavy burden of caring. NHC will work with families, communities, and local leaders to identify and select OVCs to benefit from the project using a defined selection criterion to determine the most deserving ones. Selected OVCs will be enrolled in primary and vocational training within their communities. Those enrolled in primary schools will be provided with scholastic materials including pens, books, uniforms and training materials. Direct support for fees and scholastic materials will be provided to ensure that children regularly attend school and complete the course. Vocational training will emphasize on apprenticeship and artisan skills building because of its cost effectiveness opportunities for self employment. Each vocational graduate will receive start up tools relevant to one’s training such as sewing machines, mechanical toolboxes, and carpentry tools to enable them enter into the employment market in order to self reliant. Project Officers will directly implement the activities carrying out assessments, enrolment and day-to-day support to children. Volunteers, community members, counsellors, nurses, and doctors will refer children they feel need support. Social Workers will regularly visit schools and homes where the children live, to assess progress and to provide career guidance. NHC will work closely with school authorities to monitor performance of the children. Orphans will be supported within their families, ensuring maximum participation of caregivers. Parents and guardians of the supported OVCs will be given positive parenting skills. This will enhance their communication to the children, respect to children rights, and ability to give career guidance their children. NHC will work within community structures like the Children and community-liaison department of the Uganda Police, local leaders, and religious leaders. During clinic days, and home visits to the sick clients, clients will be sensitized on the OVC program and how one can benefit.

By providing FFW, the 300 participating households will have access to additional food, and will work together on the construction of community-identified assets that will support their longer term livelihoods needs, such as a water points and tree-planting. In addition to the FFW activities, it is recognised that some families are particularly vulnerable and are not able to work in exchange for food. These families include the elderly, female-headed households, families with lactating and pregnant mothers, or People Living with HIV/AIDS. 400 particularly vulnerable families will be identified by the community and will be provided with additional food rations through Food for Free (FFF) distributions.

The ended Nsambya Home Care Programme (NHC) implementation period began in October 2006 to September 2009. The three year program aimed at improving the quality of life of HIV and AIDS infected and affected persons living within NHC program area, with interventions primarily designed to mitigate the effects of AIDS, restoring dignity and quality of life for HIV and AIDS infected and affected people by increasing their ability to access and to manage HIV and AIDS services. NHC conducted home-based care project end of cycle evaluation in August 2009. Evaluation results indicate that the project has registered significant success in terms of patient enrolment, service provision as well as capacity building for communities and families where People Living with HIV and AIDS (PLWHA) live. It also revealed that services provided to clients during the three year period included HIV testing, couselling services, medical treatment, Laboratory services, septrin prophylaxis, as well as home-visits. Very few clients (16.2%) reported to have received other health related commodities like mosquito nets and food-stuffs. Widespread poverty was attributed to such trends where people living with HIV have insufficient food and other social amenities. 95% of the beneficiaries proposed strategies towards household economic empowerment through Income Generating Activities (IGAs). NHC has proposed a 5-year follow-up project (January 2010 -December 2014) that is intended to strengthen community integrated HIV care and to deepen ownership and participation of communities and families where PLWHA live. The primary focus will be on issues of sustainability as well as quality assurance. The project will purpose deliberate attention towards moving out and strengthening community outreach activities. In order to achieve the above objectives, NHC will seek to strengthen service provision at the main facility but also in the three outreaches by providing infrastructure and supervision so that clients there can be served better. HIV Prevention services will be at the core of services that will be provided. NHC will in addition empower families and communities with skills to enable them participate in HIV and AIDS care and prevention services. Similarly, PLWHA and their families will receive appropriate entrepreneur skills for sustainable livelihoods. The program will ensure that sustainable referral networks are built and that an improved management information and documentation system is maintained to enhance cross learning and sharing. The project will be implemented by NHC, with financial support from CAFOD. Other stakeholders will be St. Francis Nsambya hospital; other AIDS service providers, PLWHA networks, family and community members, as well as government. The direct project targets, however, include: 16,000 HIV and AIDS infected men, women, and children, and the Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVCs). The indirect beneficiaries are 32,000 including the youth, family members and community members. The majority of these are unemployed, with limited sources of income to support access to quality care services for themselves.

The National Catholic Commission for Justice and Peace like other civil society organizations heavily participated in pre-election activities including preparing electoral reform proposals, civic education and joint efforts with others to work for violence –free, peaceful and fair elections among others and elections observation is indebted to correct this situstion before it escalates intyo a bigger socio-politcal problem. In pursuit of sustainable good governance, peace and national reconciliation, NCCJP plans toit is important that the NCCJP, deeply reflect and take stock of the recent elections and outstanding governance challenges and lessons learnt, and build consensus on the way forward for Uganda in the post-election period. This is in recognition of the fact that elections per se can hardly address all the underlying governance challenges in the country. To this end, NCCJP together with its diocesan Justice and Peace Commissions counter is organizing a post-election workshop to assess and evaluate the recently concluded elections to help determination future interventions especially between NCCJP and Diocesan Justice and Peace Commissions through out the country. Objectives of the workshop 1. To bring together the NCCJP, Diocesan Justice and Peace Commissions, selected political actors and other stakeholders to reflect on the just ended 2011 general elections. 2. To build consensus on the outstanding governance challenges and chart a way forward. 3. To enhance collaboration among Diocesan Justice and Peace Commissions throughout the country on key post election challenges. Expected results 1. Lessons learnt from 2011 general elections 2.

This project will support the partners on the organisational capacity assessment, developing capacity strengthening plans and implementing organizational development strategies like developing and reviewing partner strategic plans. CDRN project will equip local community members especially the community based monitors and management committee members with the knowledge and skill of their rights in local development planning process, how to monitor service delivery or implementation of government programme. A platform will be created for citizens to engage with the decision-makers. During the dialogue meetings, citizens will present issues affecting service delivery and will make proposals on how the decision makers should improve the quality of service delivery. In turn, decision-makers will make commitments and take actions to improve service delivery. Some of the proposals will inform future planning to ensure the development plans are responsive to the needs of the poor, and civil society organisation - both at a local and national level.

Fighting broke out amongst the Sudanese Peoples Liberation Movement (SPLM) on December 15th2013 in Juba which spread to Jonglei and Unity States within a couple of days. A state of emergency was declared in South Sudan and a curfew set in Juba. While Uganda was already receiving South Sudanese refugees over the past two years from Jonglei state, the influx from South Sudan increased dramatically with the recent wide-spread conflict. Between December 16th and January 20th, 2014, the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) Office reported approximately 47,500 South Sudanese refugees in Uganda. UNHCR projects that the refugee population from South Sudan could increase up to 100,000 within the next six months if the conflict continues and the UN refugee camps in South Sudan are attacked. On January 23rd, an agreement on the cessation of hostilities was signed by South Sudan's warring parties. However, the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM) and UNHCR offices report that it is still too early to know whether the conflict will end in the near future. In South Sudan, the situation remains unstable with population movements within and outside the country. From January 19th through January 22nd, 2014 CRS conducted a rapid field assessment in Adjumani District. This included key informant interviews with government officials (OPM), UNHCR Head of Field Office and WASH Program Officer, Government Health Inspector, Nyamanzi Transit Center Supervisor, Nyamanzi Transit Center Water Source Committee member and the Executive Director of the Archdiocese of Gulu Caritas. In addition, CRS conducted semi-structured interviews with refugees at Nyamanzi Transit Center as well as direct observations of Elegu Collection Center, Dzaipi Transit Center, Nyamanzi Transit Center and Resettlement Area (two separate sites), and Ayilo Resettlement Area. CRS also met with a range of other agencies in Adjumani (World Vision International, Save the Children, Red Cross, and Medicines Sans Frontières) and in Kampala (FAO, Action Against Hunger, and Oxfam) to coordinate plans and intervention strategies. Findings from the assessment point to the fact that South Sudanese refugees in Ayilo Resettlement Area lack access to water, sanitation and hygiene services. Transit and resettlement areas: CRS learned from the UNHCR and through observation that there is dire need for more water and sanitation infrastructure in both the transit and resettlement centers. For instance, the occupied resettlement centers of Miriyei, Alere, Boroli, and Nyumanzi still have big gaps (30% coverage currently) in water and sanitation facilities. At present, refugees in transit centers receive 3.4 liters per person per day while refugees at resettlement areas receive 10 liters per person per day. The Sphere minimum standard is 15 liters per person per day. In addition, the latrines at the transit centers and resettlement areas had been constructed by the different aid organizations conducting WASH interventions. From group interviews at Nyamanzi Transit Center, respondents identified the vulnerable population as pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, children and the elders. The participants expressed their concern for the lack of food as they have to line up for hours, sometimes almost a day, to receive one meal. The ranked priority needs of refugees (from highest to lowest) are food, water and shelter. With regards to water-related diseases, there have been cases of diarrhea in both adults and children; however; no statistics on water-related diseases was available. The interviewed refugees reported that their houses in South Sudan were equipped with a latrine and a bathing shelter. Organizations that are trucking water in Adjumani district include MSF, UNHCR, UNICEF, DRC and WFP. MSF is chlorinating all trucked water and is testing for free residual chlorine levels. ADRA has provided a 10,000 liter storage tank for water in Ayilo while MSF has plans to install a 30,000 liter bladder in the camp. According to the Assistant WASH Officer at UNHCR, Oxfam is expected to receive funding from UNHCR to implement WASH activities in Ayilo, although the details of these activities have not yet been finalized. The OPM and UNHCR offices are requesting aid agencies to provide refugees with materials to construct their own latrines and bathing shelters while NGOs are responsible for technical supervision. CRS’ proposed WASH interventions aim to target 4,000 individuals (800 HHs) in Ayilo Resettlement Area. 1.This Project will support refugees to have access to safe water for their household use by rehabilitation of two existing boreholes and installation of six new boreholes to target 4,000 people. 2.This Project will also support 400 refugees households to dispose waste responsibility by distribution latrine kits, Tippy Tap kits and shower kits. 3. This project will also carry out hygiene promotion activities to encourage 4,000 refugees to adopt key hygiene behaviors. These activities will be conducted by CRS with the understanding from UNHCR that other agencies, including Oxfam, will cover the WASH needs of the other individuals that will be relocated from transit centers.

The bishops are a key voice in the advocacy of agenda; however CAFOD and Caritases of Sierra Leone and Liberia have not made use of this opportunity. In the ABG programme, Ugandan Bishops have recorded commendable success through the bishops’ advocacy committee and parliamentary Liaison desk manned by the National catholic Justice and peace commission. Given that both Sierra Leone and Liberia have ABG advocacy components, there is a valid realization for the need to have cross partner learning. Within the one week exposure in Uganda, the bishops are expected to meet their Ugandan counterparts and NCCJP staff who have had successful experience in advocacy work on issues of good governance, peace and reconciliation and injustices in the extractives industry. There will be four participants from Liberia and four from Sierra Leone. The objectives of the exposure visit are as follows: 1. To see and understand the structures that needs to support the Bishop Conference such as the advocacy committee in Uganda as well as the institutional operations of the conferences and how this can be replicated in both Sierra Leone and Liberia 2. To understand the history of the conference and its contribution towards the transformation of Uganda 3. To learn from the reconciliation process in Northern Uganda 4. To learn from how the Uganda conference engages with the government on national issues 5. To understudy the programmes that the church in Uganda has for self reliance/sustainability as well as women and youth empowerment Catholic Agency For Overseas Development (CAFOD)Uganda Catholic Commission for Justice and Peace CAFODcafod@cafod.org.uk6167.00006167.0000CAFOD General Funds6167.0000Uganda Catholic Commission for Justice and Peace GB-CHC-285776-UGA344CAFODThis project aims to help in the reduction of enacted and internalised stigma around AIDS and HIV in Uganda. Uganda’s success story of HIV response in comparison to other African states is slowly changing. In 1990s, Uganda was internationally recognised for its reduction in HIV infection rates and extended access to life-saving treatment for people living with HIV (PLHIV). Between 2006 and 2011, however, its earlier success fell by the way-side with new HIV infections on the rise. In summary, the results indicate that stigma is still prevalent, although its manifestation and continuum had changed from widespread social exclusion prior to antiretroviral therapy. Uganda AIDS Commission (UAC) recognises that stigma and discrimination reduction is among the minimum package for HIV intervention and increases meaningful involvement of PLHIV in prevention endeavours. Both CAFOD and Global Network of People living with HIV (GNP+) recognise the link between faith and stigma. CAFOD has a rich experience of 30 years working on HIV in a variety of faith-based settings. GNP+ has an extensive rich experience of running networks of PLHIV. There are two types of HIV-related stigma: enacted stigma (stigma from others) and internalised stigma. While many existing interventions heavily focus on reducing enacted stigma the proposed evidenced responsive project will aim to reduce both.

Uganda AIDS Commission (UAC) recognises that stigma and discrimination reduction is critical for HIV intervention and increases meaningful involvement of people living with HIV (PLHIV) in prevention endeavours; and the role of faith leaders in stigma reduction is also acknowledged. Accordingly, this project will: • Undertake surveys to determine the level of HIV stigma and the discrimination experiences of 4,000 men and women living with and affected by HIV in Central and South-west of Uganda; • Train and support 60 Faith Leaders as agents of stigma reduction; conduct advocacy sessions on HIV prevention and care with them; and facilitate their development of appropriate action plans; • Monitor the HIV knowledge, attitudes and quality of life of PLHIV to inform the development of prevention services, individual response plans, and advocacy; • Train and equip 500 PLHIV with advocacy and lobbying skills, conduct an advocacy conference, and develop policy action papers as a result of the project findings.Catholic Agency For Overseas Development (CAFOD)St Francis Hospital NsambyaCAFODcafod@cafod.org.uk131527.4718106960.2217CAFOD General Funds24567.2501CAFOD General Funds131527.4700St Francis Hospital NsambyaGB-CHC-285776-UGA346CAFODBetween 2014 and 2016, NCCJP will be implementing a governance and peace building project in Moroto, Gulu, Kotido and Soroti dioceses, Uganda. The Uganda National Catholic Commission on Justice and Peace (NCCJP), with the support of CAFOD, has for the last five years implemented advocacy projects using the public services monitoring approaches mainly focusing on oil, health, education, peace and roads sectors. In all its projects, NCCJP works through diocesan Justice and Peace commissions and the bishops’ advocacy committee. Among the various components of the ongoing project is the public service delivery monitoring by selected and trained Public Expenditure monitors (PEMs). In this component communities take responsibility of gathering and tracking information on utilisation of public funds and raise questions with the district and sub county governments and seek governments’ action to rectify issues and provide quality service. In this project, NCCJP will focus on mapping out infrastructure in the education sector within Amuria district in Soroti diocese. NCCJP will specifically map out public primary schools in Amuria district aiming at gathering distribution of schools, the state of infrastructure, staffing ratios, sanitary amenities, disability friendly infrastructure, school performances among other parameters.

The National Catholic Commission for Justice and Peace in Uganda (NCCJP) as a key stakeholder in governance and accountability has an important role to contribute to peaceful, free and fair elections in Uganda. In this project, NCCJP seeks to : 1. To enhance citizens’ consciousness and participation in Uganda’s electoral process. 2. To promote interaction, dialogue and engagement among national state and non-state electoral process stakeholders to foster implementation of electoral laws and processes in Uganda To achieve this objectives, NCCJP will employ the following strategies. • Conduct voter/civic education NCCJP will undertake massive voter/civic education through a combination of strategies; mass media where Catholic radios and television will be utilized by both diocesan and national offices to disseminate information and educate voters on their rights and obligations during the electoral process. • Election observation NCCJP will work with other agencies to observe elections at local level throughout the country. NCCJP has already requested to be part of the Civic Society Election Observation Network (CEON). • Political dialogues These dialogues are intended to build bridges among the various individuals and political groups at local level, and promote consensus on minimum ethical standards during the campaigns. It will target party officials at district and sub-county levels, and candidates fronted by the various political parties for the different political positions. NCCJP will also organize debates for candidates on Catholic radios and TVs in which they will present and discuss their manifestos. These debates will give opportunity for the voters to interact with the candidates on what they intend to do if elected, and for incumbents to provide accountability to the voters. • Post-Election engagement with elected leaders NCCJP will diocesan forums with elected leaders to draw a road map of service delivery based on leaders manifestos. NCCJP will continue conducting civic education to enable citizens to hold elected leaders accountable on their pre-election promises This is a one year project at a cost of £35,300.

Households were increasingly applying coping strategies such as; reduced number of meals per day (2 meals), reliance on firewood and charcoal burning for income, movements within and out of districts in search of food and increased sale of livestock. According to an assessment done by WFP in October 2015, 14 sub counties are at high risk.

The drought led to total crop failure in the pastoral and agro-pastoral zones of the diocese. Other consequences of this prolonged drought were food, water and pasture stress. Livestock movement in search of water and pasture increased. Livestock moved westwards to the agricultural zone that is heavily re-infested by tsetse flies, which is the primary vector in the transmission of trypanosomosis (Nagana). The prevalence of tick borne diseases and nagana increased due to the high contact rates between livestock and the vectors. These diseases led to high morbidity and mortality rates in livestock leading to income and food insecurity in some households. According to the findings of the rapid needs assessment conducted by Caritas Kotido Diocese in February 2016, the priority community issues to be addressed due to the prolonged drought are; food crisis due to hunger, malnutrition of children under 5s, provision of shelter and non food items to households affected by fire outbreaks and access to safe drinking water. Similarly, according to Karamoja biannual Food security & nutrition assessment report (World Food Programme, October 2015), the following issues were observed; the nutrition status of children under-5 in North Karamoja Districts ranged from poor to critical; no stocks of food at household level; production for the next season was likely to be poor and the level of admission to supplementary feeding was not unprecedented. The project will address malnutrition among children under 5 years, shelter for families whose houses were burnt, and WASH through rehabilitation of boreholes, and Community Led Total Sanitation(CLTS). To build sustenance, communities will be sensitized on fire out breaks, water User Committees will be strengthened, and drought resilient crops will be promoted. Overall, 2465 men and 3555 females will be direct beneficiaries. A further 36,120 indirect beneficiaries will be reached.

Over the last two and half years, CAFOD and partners have been implementing the MF4 wash programme in Uganda. The primary outcome being that Communities, civil society organisations and local authorities have improved capacity to identify, plan, engage with, deliver and adopt sustainable WASH services in Uganda. The programme has used solar technology to improve access to safe and clean water for domestic use for communities in Kitgum, Kotido and Moroto district. This has been done through solar motorization of 5 boreholes in Kitgum, 7 boreholes in Kotido and 7 boreholes in Moroto. This new technology has attracted the attention of the local government and ministry of water. In our conversation with the district officials, there have been indications that the district government are desirous of using the MF4 successes as a learning point as they endeavor to upscale the MF4 motorized water schemes as well as initiating similar initiates in other sub counties within the districts. Orom5, Kotido 7, Moroto. Specifically, advocacy work under this project has been to change community attitudes and practices; influence district and sub county government’s policy and practice, strengthen district coordination and joint working with other CSO’s on WASH, engage local media and build partners advocacy capacities. The WHAT. This proposed research is intended to generate evidence for engaging with the local government, ministry of water through the umbrella organization and other civil society organization in the WASH sector. It will also take stock of the projects influence on government policy and practice on motorized borehole.

A combined outbreak of covid-19, drought and insecurity (interclan raids) in the region have compounded the health and socio-economic challenges already posed by Covid-19 due to the high health risks involved. The presence of a disease in the population will consequently decrease the productive capacity of economically productive people, contributing to food and nutrition insecurity. The porous borders between Uganda and South Sudan and between Kenya and Uganda, coupled with the ill-equipped health system in the sub region compromises effective prevention and control of Covid-19 pandemic. This calls for cross sectoral collaboration, early identification and management of cases and risk communication to alleviate public panic, control the spread and mitigate the health impacts of the pandemic on the people living in marginalised and vulnerable societies like Karamoja. The proposal seeks to address issues of risk communication for the communities safety and provide an economic boost of the most vulnerable communities who are mostly hit by the pandemic building up on the previous efforts and conduct lobby and advocacy for improved, coordinated service delivery towards the fight against the worlds’ giant pandemic as follows; Support to Women/widow headed families, Child headed households, Older persons and people with special needs persons, these categories depended on the youth for survival but now cannot be provided for due to lack of work to do in the centres due to the present lock down.

Subsistence agriculture is the main economic activity. With many children in a family and cultural inheritance of the land, each family only has a small portion of land that can hardly sustain them. The crops grown (beans, groundnuts, maize, matooke [plantain]) have decreased as a result of reduced rainfall, soil exhaustion and disease, reducing food production for both consumption and sale, resulting in low income generation. Many farmers have resorted to brewing beer with negative effects on families and communities. The average household income is UGX 6,000 a day, which is far too low to cater for family needs or make any substantial savings. This project will help young adults and women start animal and bee keeping, along with making crafts for sale thus increasing income. This project will be run through the existing Adult literacy programme and open-door training occasions for young adults bringing them together to learn different practical skills eg basic accounting, computer, basic English, agriculture, environmental studies and various vocational skills eg sewing, crochet, dyeing and printing, cookery, baking, beadwork. Group counselling sessions will allow them to rebuild their personalities. These skills will make them self sufficient and fitting members in society. During COVID 19, the municipality registered over 350 teen pregnancies and reports on senior school attendance has shown it dropped very low due to teen pregnancies. The project's aims are: 1.

Some of these challenges are as result of the war that lasted for over 2 decades. The sub region has the highest incidence of poverty with 67.7% of the population living below poverty line compared to Karamoja 65.7% and 1.6% in Kampala Capital city (UBOS 2019/2020). The level of household income is generally low since majority of people depend on subsistence farming, with the household per capita income being estimated at UGX.200, 000 per month (IPC report 2017). The environment and natural resources are under threat from natural or man-made drivers of change namely, poverty, rapid population growth, unplanned urbanization, pollution among others. In the plight of the above challenges, Caritas Gulu Archdiocese in partnership with Catholics Agency for Overseas Development (CAFOD)-Caritas UK implemented Integrated Food Security Programme (IFSP) for more than 5 years and now intends to implement a project titled “Strengthening Community Resilience Project-SCRP”. The overall goal of the project is to contribute to inclusive climate resilient livelihoods where multiple stakeholders collaborate to manage the ecosystems to strengthen climate resilience and sustainable development. The project shall be implemented in Agoro sub-county – Lamwo district for 3 years (2022-2025) targeting a total of 300 households as direct beneficiaries. The proposed intervention is anchored on the key development agendas of the country like the NDPII, the parish development model and vision 2040. Importantly the interventions align well with new CAFOD programme strategy with direct contribution to outcome 1,3 and 4 of the strategy.

However, the fragile ecosystem is increasingly getting degraded due to bush burning, poor farming practices and massive cutting of trees for charcoal and agriculture. Women, men and youths are disproportionately affected by the consequences of climate change in the present and the future. This R4R project seeks to address some of the critical challenges related to environmental degradation, climate change, drought, biodiversity, wildlife conflicts, food security and livelihoods to develop resilient communities in which all people, particularly women, girls, men, and boys thrive in a peaceful, well-governed and healthy supportive natural environment. The common natural and man-made hazards reported in North Karamoja are drought, disease outbreaks, wildlife, floods, resource-based conflicts, temperature and extremes. The less significant natural hazards reported were earthquakes and landslides). R4R Project is well aligned to the National Development Plan (NDPIII), Vision 2040, Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Caritas Kotido Diocese’s strategic plan, five-year district annual plan and the new CAFOD program strategy. The goal of the R4R project is to build resilient communities in which all people, (particularly women, men, boys, and girls) thrive in a peaceful, well-governed, and healthy supportive natural environment. The project targets the economically active beneficiaries between 18 – 65 years to ensure Sustainable reliance on natural resources-based livelihoods and increased income alternatives. The project is well aligned with new CAFOD programme strategy that is aimed at promoting integral ecology model. The project aims to address the cry of the poor alongside the cry of the earth.

However, the fragile ecosystem is increasingly getting degraded due to bush burning, poor farming practices and massive cutting of trees for charcoal and agriculture. Pastoralism and agro-pastoralism form the main livelihoods bases in the region which is generally characterized by poor rainfall distribution and reliability manifested through prolonged dry spells and occasional flash floods. The magnitude, frequency, and severity of these hazards have increased over the past decades adversely affecting the environment and seriously affecting and eroding the productive assets and traditional coping capacities that support livelihoods.

The project will focus on addressing the key identified constraints that range from a lack of technical knowledge, poor positioning of beehives, to high transport costs and mainly lack of coordination among the key stakeholders. Other factors included the lack of trust among value chain actors, limited honey collection centres, and high taxes. The quality and quantity of honey were also found to be insufficient due to bush fires, pesticides and herbicides, and climate change, and poor storage practices were mentioned. According to market assessment and MSD strategies done by Fair & Sustainable Consulting in 2023; it has been reported that 95% of the honey produced in Uganda is locally consumed with only 5% exported. The market is reported to be undersupplied with most of the honey sold in supermarkets in major towns. This suggests that the demand for honey is higher than the supply in Uganda implying an opportunity for economic growth potential. According to TUNADO, the demand for bee products is reported to be growing locally (within districts), nationally (in Uganda), regionally (in eastern Africa), and internationally. Therefore, the project will aim to develop the honey value chain, the promotion of beekeeping and beekeeper organisations among smallholder farmers and to develop their number, capacities and outreach is a first step to take as this will increase production. At the same time, input supply (e.g., beehives and equipment) and technical and training services will be developed through a ToT model could also for small-scale beekeepers. Access to finance, governance of the market system and developing a conducive business environment with support of government departments.
