We further join UNICEF and UNHCR urging for increased financing, inclusion of displaced children in national systems, expansion of secondary access, teacher support, and safe learning spaces to sustain education during crises.

School Management Committees (SMCs) and Parent-Teacher Associations (PTAs) in Uganda are key to improving literacy and numeracy. While SMCs provide vital school oversight by monitoring teaching and ensuring safe learning environments; PTAs, boost crucial parental support with homework and academic follow-up. Although these governance bodies are established in most primary schools as per the 2024 @UwezoUganda National Learning Assessment report, their effectiveness requires improvement, particularly in achieving the meaningful inclusion of women.

Our 2025 Annual Report is out. In a year of global shocks, we saw hope take shape through: • Youth driving learning • Parents stepping in as co-educators • Governments leading system reform • Power shared, not held 👉 Read the report: ziziafrique.org/wp-content/upl…

Every school plays a huge role in shaping learners, but parental involvement is key. Let parents hold schools accountable and work together to unlock every child's potential.

An insight in today’s @newvisionwire on the withdrawal of corruption charges against Paul Akamba, Yusuf Mutembuli and Cissy Namujju.

The dropped corruption charges against Paul Akamba, Yusuf Mutembuli and Cissy Namujju directly affected the fight against corruption as witnesses and whistleblowers are discouraged from providing evidence against corrupt seeing as they are constantly let off the hook without any clear explanation.

We demand a clear, public, and reasoned explanation from @ODPPUGANDA. #BangTheTable #BackOnTrack #RNBVision2060 @AnguLyno

As we race towards the 2030 deadline for the #SDGs, Uwezo Uganda is committed to making Phase III of the @alive_programme count. Under the ALiVE 2025–2030 strategy, we aim to reach 3 million children in Uganda alone with stronger life skills and values while working hand in hand with other implementing organisations and government agencies across East Africa.

Happy new year 2026. @ngoforum @actionaiduganda @CSBAGUGANDA @UwezoUganda @DKinUganda @Accu_Ug @tacteso @AcfimAfrica @FOWODE_UGANDA @democracynow @DemocracyDocket @UNHumanRights @IHRF_English
