Just published! @FINCA's Leslie Enright and Conrad N. Hilton Foundation’s Barri Shorey explain how we’re addressing barriers to education and economic opportunity in Uganda.
@FINCA_Uganda and a consortium of partners are working to strengthen accessible early childhood development (ECD) services in Uganda’s refugee-hosting communities. The project uses a two-generation approach of supporting both children and the adults who care for them within the same program. Early results of the pilot program show that deep community engagement, local partnerships, and blended support teams are essential in fostering #ECD growth.
