3000 Women Empowerment programme in Uganda

Dear all,

SCOEN is building Adolescent Girls Program continue guide girls and young women to access girl-friendly education and stay involved and engaged after they have graduated from the year-long training program. This offers the space and support for emerging girl leaders to continue to develop their self-confidence and positively transform their lives and communities through knowledge, leadership, mentorship, and skills building.

However with the startegies and plans available, SCOEN has not realised funds for this project; we therefore appeal for support, your generosity towards our activities are very much welcome.

Since the project’s onset, SCOEN has been learning about the critical need to couple our programmatic work with girl-led advocacy and policy-influencing efforts to reinforce our mission. In examining how government actors, decision-makers, and policies fall short of adequately addressing violations against girls and women, we were forced to look inward. As the two sayings go, “charity begins at home” and “practice what you preach”, we dedicated ourselves to operationalizing girls’ leadership and accountability by creating an experimental empowerment programme. In taking stock of our growth after ten years, we believe this is one step in the right direction in embodying our founding values.

Thank you for your support in helping us empower women to overcome inequitable gender norms and to make informed decisions when it comes to child health, food insecurity, and family planning.

All the genorous supporters thank you! We can not do any thing without your support and finances are still lacking.

The world needs a constant reminder of how the meaningful involvement of girls and young women in decision-making is a fundamental aspect of realizing societal growth and sustainable development. Movements and projects aimed at girls’ leadership and civic inclusion have seen a huge rise in recent years, as Covid-19 laid bare the systemic inequities stymying true change.
