Overview
Caritas Uganda, with support from Caritas Norway and partner Caritas networks, launched a 3 year Integrated Programme for Good Governance and Sustainable Livelihoods in the dioceses of Arua, Lira and Nebbi in 2017. The programme directly targeted 6,000 smallholder farmer households (30,000 individuals) and 60,000 indirect beneficiaries. Priority was given to vulnerable groups such as people with disabilities, women-headed households, youth-headed households, and persons living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHAs).
PDCC Limited was commissioned to conduct the Baseline Study, providing a comprehensive foundation for programme implementation. The study assessed food security levels, production systems, governance practices, and institutional capacities across the three dioceses.
