Day 2 training for women district councillors on effective legislative engagement is underway. The training is strengthening their capacity to use their leadership roles to promote accountable governance, gender-responsive policymaking, and inclusive legislative processes.

[FOWODE @FOWODE_UGANDA]

We acknowledge that women leaders with the right skill set & access to essential information are better positioned to legislate effectively & guide policy decisions that reflect the priorities of women and girls, and this is why investing in their leadership development remains critical.

Today, we signed off a grant for our Women’s Amplified Voice for Accountability project that will be implemented in the Karamoja region with our partners Nakere Rural Women Activists (NARWOA) and Hope for Karamoja Children Foundation (HCF). We thank the @DKinUganda for the support & look forward to making our contribution in the region.

Through mentorship sessions & training on effective legislative engagement, we have strengthened women’s caucuses to jointly propose motions aimed at advancing gender equality and advocate for gender-responsive proposals to be included in policies, plans, and budgets. #FOWODEAT30

[FOWODE @FOWODE_UGANDA]

The women legislators we have trained continue to demonstrate increased ability to effectively advocate for women's specific issues at all levels. We have also witnessed a growing articulation of gender-specific issues in councils, contributing to gender-sensitive policymaking.

[FOWODE @FOWODE_UGANDA]

This year is special, and big things are in the works! As we mark 30 years of empowering women and championing gender equality, we are cooking up something extraordinary. Brace yourselves for what’s coming! #FOWODEAT30

Yesterday, FOWODE's Board of Directors, Board committee members and senior management participated in a Board retreat held at The great outdoors in Kalanamu- Gayaza. It's a great start of the year 2025 @FOWODE_UGANDA.

We continue to challenge dominant narratives through the peer to peer community model. These women-led community peer conversations are a safe space for raising awareness, nurturing individual skills and refueling community activism.
