We will reach some of these children through the services USDC initiates and supports in our target districts of Luwero, Masaka, Kampala, Jinja, Soroti, Hoima, Masindi, Arua, Nebbi, Adjumani, Moyo, Lira and we will reach others through the services of this directory. Children cannot be separated from their parents and caretakers who are our main partners and through whom we reach the disabled children. We found that family members, especially parents are committed and willing to do all that is possible within their means to help their children with disabilities. Most of the time they do not know where to go for services. Even if they do reach a services that is close to them, the service providers may not only be unable to help but may also not know where the child could be refered to for assistance. It was with this in mind that USDC developed the directory of disability organisations and services in Uganda. The directory will help PWDs, their families, various service providers and development partners identify the closest service to them and the various options that can be explored. The first chapter of the directory provides an overview of disabilty in Uganda, factors that limit participation of PWDs, what can be done and possible sources of services. The next chapters are a compilation of addresses of organisations of persons with disabilities and of service providers. They have been listed by district to ease the search. This directory, the first of its kind in Uganda will be updated annually. A form is available at the back of the directory for those who wish for their organisation to be included in the next issue. Please use the directory and let us know how it has been useful and any challenges that you may have found while using it.

The population is estimated at 31 million (UBOS 2008) with a growth rate of 3.6 per annum. The literacy rate is 61% female and 76%male. Fifty five% is composed of children under the age of 18 years. Uganda is among the HIPC and has a GDP of $420 with a gini –coefficient of 0.581. The maternal mortality rate and infant mortality rate are at 435/100,000 and 75/1000 live births respectively. 1.2 The culture, economic and political development of Uganda has had significant influence on disability and access to services by persons with disabilities. Uganda became independent in 1962 and experienced rapid economic growth during the first two decades based on coffee, cotton, copper and tourism. This growth was interrupted by a series of conflicts that have directly and indirectly impacted on disability through war related injuries and breakdown of health services. 2.0 Brief History of disability movement in Uganda 2.1 Persons with disabilities have traditionally lived with their families. During the 50s and early 60s institutions were introduced based on the charity approach and in the case of physical disability, in response to the global polio epidemic. The most prominent of these was for the blind, for persons with polio and those with leprosy. Uganda Foundation for the Blind (UFB) was founded in 1952 and enacted 1954. Extremely few PWDs accessed these institutions and those who did tended to live permanently in them. 2.2 In the late 70s PWDs started to come together to form single and multi- disability groups such as the Invalid Salvation Stream (ISS) in 1976. Disability organisations met in 1987and founded the National Union of Persons with Disabilities in Uganda (NUDIPU), a national umbrella organisation for disabled peoples’ organisations. NUDIPU currently has 5 uni- disability member organisations, 56 district unions and 3 associate members. It has been providing the election framework for election of PWDs at district and parliament level. 2.3 One of the early strategies of NUDIPU that was of very great leverage to the disability movement was the successful lobby for inclusion of PWDs in the constitution assembly (1992) and constituent assembly (1994/95). PWDs joined voices with women and other marginalized groups, and successfully advocated for affirmative action of women and PWDs. A prominent outcome of this was the representation of PWDs in parliament and consequently in all local councils from village to district level. iv 1 DISABILITY ORGANISATIONS IN UGANDA A DIRECTORY OF NATIONAL AND DISTRICT ORGANISATIONS OF AND FOR PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES 2.4 The self-representation of PWDs has greatly affected the legal arena in Uganda. Several laws and by –laws have been enacted at parliament and local (district) levels respectively. These are discussed in section 5.1 2.5 Parallel to the development of the disability movement was the formation of organisations for disabilities. An example of this is Uganda Society for Disabled Children which was formed in 1985 with the aim of supporting rehabilitation of children with disabilities and facilitating their inclusion in families, communities and schools. An important strength of the disability work in Uganda is the corporation between organisationof and organisations for persons with disabilities. 3.0 The profile of disability in Uganda 3.1 According to the 2002 census PWDs are 4.2% of the population. The 2005 Uganda National Household Survey found 7% and the Uganda Demographic Health Survey

  • Part of a Former Cattle Ranching Area, Land There Was Gazetted by the Ugandan Government for Use by Refugees in 1990
    NEW ISSUES IN REFUGEE RESEARCH Working Paper No. 32 UNHCR’s withdrawal from Kiryandongo: anatomy of a handover Tania Kaiser Consultant UNHCR CP 2500 CH-1211 Geneva 2 Switzerland e-mail: [email protected] October 2000 These working papers provide a means for UNHCR staff, consultants, interns and associates to publish the preliminary results of their research on refugee-related issues. The papers do not represent the official views of UNHCR. They are also available online at <http://www.unhcr.org/epau>. ISSN 1020-7473 Introduction The Kiryandongo settlement for Sudanese refugees is located in the north-eastern corner of Uganda’s Masindi district. Part of a former cattle ranching area, land there was gazetted by the Ugandan government for use by refugees in 1990. The first transfers of refugees took place shortly afterwards, and the settlement is now well established, with land divided into plots on which people have built houses and have cultivated crops on a small scale. Anthropological field research (towards a D.Phil. in anthropology, Oxford University) was conducted in the settlement from October 1996 to March 1997 and between June and November 1997. During the course of the fieldwork UNHCR was involved in a definitive process whereby it sought to “hand over” responsibility for the settlement at Kiryandongo to the Ugandan government, arguing that the refugees were approaching self-sufficiency and that it was time for them to be absorbed completely into local government structures. The Ugandan government was reluctant to accept this new role, and the refugees expressed their disbelief and feelings of betrayal at the move.

ABSTRACT: Contract farming has expanded in Uganda due to the promotional efforts of various actors: private, public, and/or international aid agencies. While motives for promoting contract farming may vary by actor, it is argued in this study that contract farming is crucial in the commercialization of smallholder agriculture and hence, poverty reduction in Uganda. However, smallholder farmers in Uganda have reportedly experienced some contractual problems when dealing with large agribusiness firms, resulting in them giving up contract farming.
