End Human Rights Abuses Against Alleged Witches

Hello Cherished Donors!!!

It has been another interesting and exciting period of our work where we present you with updates.  Songtaba during the quarter under review is happy to share with you that project beneficiaries are all fine and doing great. This report is focused on the joint monitoring visits to beneficiary communities and beneficiaries themselves by the GlobalGiving Evaluation Team and Songtaba.

After three days of intensive capacity building training by the GlobalGiving team to Songtaba staff on a number of areas identified by Songtaba to improve our work, the final day was a visit to the field to monitor progress of work and establish facts and evidence of project implementation.

Kukuo alleged witches camp was the first place to visit. From morning till mid-day the team met and interacted with the all the remaining women at the camp. The team listen to their individual stories of how they came to leave in the camp and also their plans going forward. The alleged witches shared their working experiences with Songtaba to the GlobalGiving team.

After the Kukuo camp, the team then visited some of the women who were re-integrated through the project to assess their conditions and on how they are faring at their new home now. The GlobalGiving evaluation team was excited to realize that the re-integration programmes was possible and that Songtaba coordinated it so well that the women themselves believed in the process and felt safe because all necessary stakeholders were engaged and that guaranteed their safety.

The five days visit by the GlobalGiving team was a success and the training received from the team has also significantly improve Songtaba's work especially the aspects of communication and fundraising.

Thank you for your support through the GlobalGiving platform and we assure you of a effecient use of the financial and non-financial resources we receive from you.
