PROJECT TIME LINE; ongoing

BACKGROUND: Due to the political instability that has been going on in the region for a long time, many aspects of life in the district have either deteriorated or stagnated. The education department has been worst hit as the cost is high and the cattle that have been the major source of livelihood was taken by the Karamojong raiders.

The education of the world’s children is high on the global agenda. In the context of education for all (EFA), all children should receive free, good quality education. The reality is that millions of the world’s children are too poor to benefit from the declaration, unless there are special interventions that target their development. Unfortunately, such children do not form a special social category in poverty eradication intervention programs. Thus, their inclusion in the achievement of EFA appears to be a hit-or-miss phenomenon. Recognizing the central role of poverty eradication in wider global agendas and acknowledging the need to reach out to the poorest children with the objective to break the poverty cycle for them, VMU embarked on a program of education and poverty eradication.

The Project aims at solving the problems hidden by the fact that orphans and vulnerable children are invisible; yet by the very nature of their situation, they are included among those that are classified as disadvantaged and poor in Uganda. Children are subsumed within the poverty categories most often referred to such as households, communities, people which means that there is a high tendency to focus on adult-related poverty while child problems are ignored, partly because children have little power and influence within a group that contains adults.

Findings reflect that children in abject problems can be recognized by rather elementary as opposed to sophisticated criteria. Top on the list is absence of basic necessities such as shelter, food, clothing and water. Equally important is the ‘human condition’ in terms of physical health and parental care and protection. Schooling is high on the list as a critical criterion in determining who is extremely or modestly a vulnerable and disadvantaged child.

While there seems to be national consensus among donors, the public sector and civil society that the government has made commendable progress in implementing PEAP (Poverty Eradication Action Plan) as flexibly as possible, it’s evolving nature, due to the participatory and consultative reviews it undergoes regularly, does not address many of the development challenges Disadvantaged children face today. It would take lobbying and advocacy interventions to ensure that the needs and demands of children in abject poverty are met. School-related costs have been the major obstacle for children in abject poverty to access education.

VOICELESS MIND UGANDA: The Organization was formed mainly to focus on Rural Community people development in various aspects for self-empowerment ESPECIALLY for the POOR Children.

PROBLEM STATEMENT

Children education in Uganda is quite challenging as a result of the recent history of the Bugishu region that has been characterized by political instability. Many children have either been left homeless, orphaned, destitute, living with a single parent or with very poor parents. Some children have either been infected with HIV/AIDS or are living with parents or guardians who are infected with HIV/AIDS. Most families in Bugishu region are living below poverty line hence cannot afford to raise money for school fees and scholastic materials like uniform and books.

This condition has led many children to be vulnerable to many dangers like HIV infection, dropping out of school, early marriages, rape and domestic violence.

Government has tried to offer some educational support through UPE and USE but the schools having this government mandate are in a sorry state in terms of school facilitation and educational staff.

*about our local area and its problems

We are staying in a military dictatorship and a shadow democratic government where every person is free and struggles to develop him/her on economic growth whereby every person is free to the rights of economic, social and political that enables to see the life is sustained and balanced.

People respect every ones dignity and they work.

They do developmental and security.

They show interest to bring changes in the community through social development here they form groups and are mandated to carry out the targeted activities.

They do agriculture and education for all people.

Our area is covered with mountains or a place with hilly stones,

We have a culture of free male circumcision through ancestral belief.

We have many religious faith believes.

our problems is poverty and sufferings, so the innocent people their rights is violated/degenerated as being the disadvantaged group to find access on equality of human rights,education,healthcare,water,food,information,funds among others

Which kind of children’s are we serving? The poor and vulnerable children

The poverty and suffering of the children’s: our children are who are mostly disadvantaged on being marginalized, vulnerable, orphan. Some children they do find themselves suffering on a big life challenge and risks, with distorted mind, miserable and confused to extent of running mad. some children’s their parents death or mistreatments causes them to leave their homes to streets/bushes//charity organizations/other homes or stay in the very home but with huge problems to find the sustaining resources such as food, clothes, healthcare, education and shelter due to poverty,polygamy,deterioration and hunger. Many children’s are violated and degraded by the peoples who cannot support them for their personal development ,some girls are sexually raped or forced, while as boys do child labor and theft so that they earn a living ,we have been contacted by them and people even us we effectively call these children’s and give the little we have. Within us we reach churches and announce our existences in seek for any person who has free clothes, food and any other materials then they donate to our charity box so when collected we assemble these targeted children’s in need and receive these resources. When we do this the demand increases’ meaning more children’s and even the very children’s pressures us to seek for more items where it becomes a promising debt to handle the situation to normal.

How do we handle this situation? We as an organization do compassion and endowments on the children in need for their rights and services required, the changes done in them so far they ;we have made them the beneficiaries and have received the resources such as food, old clothes and bed covers, encouraged and serviced to school and church service on good moral and knowledge . Encouraged the faithful local donators bring the pledges and bless our work to proceed on sustainable merit.

Our implications

We propose to build the resource centers (dormitories, game stations, talent development, schools, healthcare hospices and churches, administration blocks, purchase of program vehicles, open up investment non profitable grant making business for the organization programs

VOICELESS MIND UGANDA hopes to raise the hope of the vulnerable children by providing them opportunities of accessing education. When these children are educated, their respective families will automatically benefit hence cutting the growing poverty cycle.

VMU wants to establish good learning environment for the children and also facilitate them with the needed scholastic materials

STRATEGY

In order to improve the literacy levels and welfare of families in Uganda we wish to set up a system whereby vulnerable children will access quality education. The organization will be providing vulnerable children with scholastic materials to make their education less stressing. The organisation will at the same time be sensitizing the parents or guardians of the beneficiary children to support them in education ,those children who are homeless or find it quite t Difficult to stay in families will be helped to stay in boarding schools where boarding facilities will be provided. The children will be counseled and guided to take on educational processes that will help them and their families.

PROJECT GOAL

Enabling vulnerable children to access quality education and have a safe accommodation and personal service materials.

OBJECTIVES

i) To increase vulnerable children’s’ school attendance in Uganda by 60%.

ii) To provide 2000 vulnerable children with basic scholastic materials.

iii) To enhance the socio-economic welfare of the vulnerable children

PROJECT ACTIVITIES

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

The organisation has competent technical staffs that have been charged to ensure that all the education needs of vulnerable children are well catered for and the acquired resources are well utilized.

The project officer and project assistant will be responsible for the implementation of the different activities under supervision of the project coordinator who will be answerable to the Board of the organisation. Copies of all activities performed in the project will be kept with the project officer and for accountability purposes the financial records will be kept by the organizational accountant.

A well designed work plan is in place to ensure that all activities flow as planned and regular meetings will be held to ensure a smooth running of activities.

During every term holiday beneficiaries and their parents/guardians and organizational staff will hold a one day seminar to discuss about the previous terms successes, challenges and make recommendations for future action.

MONITORING AND EVALUATION PLAN

As a way of ensuring quality service delivery, good resource management and to see that pupils are in school, the organisation has set up a strong monitoring and evaluation system to achieve the above. Each officer will be required to effectively implement his/her role.

All the above stake holders will be required to provide timely reports on the progress of the school activities and copies of these reports will be circulated to responsible officers.

Quarterly stake holder meetings will be held at all levels to ensure a smooth and timely evaluation of the activities.

At the end of every year there will be a general meeting that will comprise of the beneficiaries, school leaders, community leaders organizational staff and other well wishers.

Project Sustainability

The organisation has started on projects like chicken rearing, mango tree planting and hopes to start cattle rearing to ensure that in a few years it will be able to meet some of the educational costs of the vulnerable children. The children who will succeed in education will be required to be giving back some money to the organisation so that other vulnerable children would be supported.
