1.0 Background
The Oxfam in Uganda Country Strategic Framework (CSF) 2021-2030 envisions a Uganda free of inequality and injustice where people, particularly women and young people, claim and exercise their rights and responsibilities and influence decisions that affect their lives. The country strategy is anchored on 4 thematic goals i.e. Humanitarian Preparedness and Response, Inclusive and Accountable Governance, Resilient Livelihoods and Gender Justice and Women Rights.
Our goal for the period 2021 - 2030, is a peaceful and resilient society where people’s rights are upheld, and state and non-state actors are responsive and accountable. This will be realized through four Strategic Objectives: Inclusive and accountable governance systems are in place to promote the rights of vulnerable people; Vulnerable and marginalized people are economically empowered and have resilient livelihoods; People vulnerable to crises are safe, secure, and resilient, and enjoy dignified lives; and Women and girls from vulnerable communities are empowered, enjoy their rights and live-in dignity.
As part of delivering on our commitments in the CSF, Oxfam in Uganda working with Oxfam Ireland secured a 5year (2023-2027) grant to implement Resilience, inclusiveness, sustainability, and Empowerment of communities in Karamoja (RISE-K) project, primarily targeting women, youth and other vulnerable people and delivered using the nexus approach.
2.0. Information about the Project (RISE-K):
RISE-K is part of the multi country 5-year (2023-2027) project under Ireland’s Civil Society Partnership (ICSP) programme implemented in 7 countries. (Malawi, Zimbabwe, Zambia, South Sudan Somalia-Somali-land, DRC and Uganda). In Uganda the interventions is implemented in Karamoja sub-region, in the districts of Moroto, Amudat and Nakapiripirit, primarily targeting women, youth and other vulnerable people. Women living in extreme poverty, women small holder Agro-pastoralists, women with disabilities (WWD), women artisan miners and widows are targeted across the different interventions. In addition, youth out of school, especially boys and girls working in the mining and pastoralism in both rural and peri- urban are a key target of the projects interventions. Women and youth are the primary target group because of their confounding needs and vulnerabilities. Women in Karamoja are the furthest behind, suffering from extreme poverty, with limited access, control and use of productive resources and facing food insecurity, water scarcity, landlessness, scarcity of energy resources, limited knowledge and access to information.
3.0 Project Goal
An Empowered, inclusive, just and resilient community in the Karamoja sub-region of Uganda
3.1 Project Outcome Areas
Impact 1: Food and Income Security. People experiencing poverty and most vulnerable to shocks, conflicts and crises have sustainable and equitable access to food and livelihoods
Impact 2: Rights, Accountability, and Protection. People experiencing poverty and most vulnerable to shocks, conflicts and crises are able to claim and access their rights to well-being, peace and security without fear.
Impact 3: Enhanced Humanitarian Action and Local Leadership. Systems and structures that prevent and respond to shocks, conflict and crises are inclusive, locally-driven and informed by the needs, rights, and vulnerabilities of those furthest behind.
In addition, as part of the implementation approach the project has an inter-related impact area connected to the other 3 impact areas, integrating a nexus approach across all programming and systems to address both short and long terms needs looking at Humanitarian Development and Peace (HDP).
Impact 4: Integrating a Nexus Approach in programmes and systems. People experiencing poverty, conflict and most vulnerable to shocks are better served by a nexus approach to humanitarian response, development and peacebuilding.
Project Implementation
The project is implemented and delivered with five local and national partners who include; Resource Rights Africa, National Association of Women of Uganda (NAWOU), CARITAS Moroto, TUNADO and Centre for Budget and Tax Policy. Oxfam is leading in some of the initiatives and also providing technical support and coordination to the entire project, while partners are delivering on others project interventions directly and all contributing to the three Impact areas above.
The project is an integrated project in which the different components complement each other as a way of implementing a one programme approach which is here referred to as nexus programming
