Protecting Lives

By Mbarara Rise | Project leader

Dear Donors

Here is what we have been able to accomplish

Through this project, immediate support was provided to the affected 8 individuals. This included safe relocation to secure locations, access to basic needs, and coordination of medical and legal assistance. The intervention prioritized rapid response, confidentiality, and dignity.

At the same time, the situation remains fluid and concerning. Beyond the eight individuals supported, other community members in nearby areas have been arrested, evicted, and subjected to similar threats. These ongoing incidents highlight a pattern of increased vulnerability, reinforcing the urgency for expanded support mechanisms.

Impact

This intervention not only protected lives but also restored a sense of hope and security among the beneficiaries. By addressing urgent risks, the project created space for recovery and resilience.

However, the arrests and continued targeting of other community members demonstrate that the need extends beyond this group. More individuals are now seeking similar assistance, placing additional pressure on available resources. Safe shelter and support remain critical in enabling affected persons to rebuild their lives with dignity.

Continued and increased investment in safe relocation, healthcare, and legal services is crucial to respond effectively, safeguard human rights, and ensure that no one facing immediate danger is left without support.

with respect
