PROVISION OF INCLUSIVE EDUCATION TECHNICAL SUPPORT & CAPACITY BUILDING TO THE UGANDA EDUCATION CONSORTIUM

  1. INnovative and inCLUsive accelerated eDucation programmE for refugee and host community children (INCLUDE) project Phase III 
  2. Multi Year Resilience Programme (MYRP) II project 
  3. First Emergency Response (FER) project

All implemented by the Uganda Education Consortium where HI is a member, providing disability inclusion and inclusive education technical support

 

 Humanity & Inclusion, Uganda

 

  1. CONTEXT

Humanity & Inclusion (HI) is an international non-profit organisation, implementing humanitarian and development actions in over sixty countries. Co-recipient of the 1997 Nobel Peace Prize, Humanity & Inclusion is a 40-year-old independent and impartial organization working in situations of poverty and exclusion, conflict and disaster. 

In Uganda, HI works to identify and support those with specific needs and ensure the meaningful inclusion of refugees and asylum seekers. HI Uganda is currently implementing development and humanitarian interventions in six sectors/thematic areas: Livelihood, Mental Health and Psychosocial Support, Physical and Functional Rehabilitation, Inclusive Education, Inclusive Health, and Inclusive Humanitarian Action.

Education projects being implemented by the Uganda Education Consortium

Uganda hosts 1,521,424 refugees (UNCHR February 2023). Gross enrolment of children in pre-primary, primary and secondary education remains low at 53%, ranging from 43% for pre-primary, 91% for primary and only 10% for secondary (UNHCR, Education Dashboard Term 3 2022). Among the total enrolment of 507,957 (refugees and nationals), children with disabilities are 17,139, representing 3.37%. This figure is low considering that in Uganda, 13.6% of persons aged 5 years and above have functional difficulties[1], globally, about 16% of the population experiences disability at some point in their life.[2]

Concerning education for children in refugee hosting districts (both refugee and non-refugee children), the Education Response Plan for Refugees and Host-Communities (ERP) II and the Multi-Year Resilience Programme (MYRP) linked to the ERP II emphasize the importance of improved access and retention to inclusive learning and training opportunities for all, including children with disabilities.

The Uganda Education Consortium (U-EC) led by Save the Children (SCI) is implementing the following projects, contributing to the implementation of ERP II and MYRP II.

  • INCLUDE 3 funded by the European Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations (ECHO),
  • MYRP 2 funded by the Education Cannot Wait (ECW), and
  • First Emergency Response (FER) funded by ECW.

The Consortium will enable conflict-affected children (refugees/host communities, boys/girls, children with disabilities and out-of-school children) to access safe and inclusive formal and non-formal learning opportunities and supports them to attend and remain in school (Result 1). Learners enrolled in formal and non-formal education (including AEP) will be supported by teachers with improved competencies and demonstrate improved learning outcomes (Result 2). District Local Government and School Leadership and Management capacities in the target communities will be strengthened to support better and supervise safe and inclusive learning environments that generate improved learning outcomes (Result 3).

The Junior Experts work at least 1 and at most 2 years in a project of Enabel or of one of the Non-governmental Actors (NGA) that are affiliated with the Junior Programme. 

The Junior Programme only accepts young people aged 30 at most.

CONTEXT

The rice sector in Uganda is characterised by low productivity, excessive use of chemical inputs, lack of infrastructure and application of practices that contribute to environmental impacts. The expansion of rice production by small-holder rice farmers over the last 15 years has led to significant parts of wetlands in Eastern and Northern Uganda being converted into paddy fields, resulting in greenhouse gas, water and biodiversity stress.

The Rikolto project  wants to ensure that the rice sector in Uganda is more resilient, sustainable and inclusive, providing a living income for producers and agri-business entrepreneurs, including women and youth, while increasing the availability of sustainably produced food products on the market and reducing the environmental impacts.

The project wants to increase crop productivity in a sustainable way, to enhance farmer access to markets by influencing the eating habits of consumers and to influence public and profit sector policy in favour of sustainable production and consumption.

Function

The Junior Expert will design and develop effective project communication strategies and materials; These will particularly focus on the project evidence and on influencing consumers' preference to consume healthy rice in collaboration with rice processors and retailers under the "Healthy Rice Initiative".
