We would like to acknowledge the dedication and service of Chairman Darren Perry who stepped down in February after 6 years of service to School for Life Foundation. Directors Jack Elliott OAM and Matt Day should also both be recognised for their long service to the Board of School for Life as they parted this year. We also wish to acknowledge the highly effective leadership of the CEO Annabelle Chauncy. A new organisational structure implemented this year has provided a sound basis to ensure the future expansion of our services in Uganda. This year, we expanded our operations, starting construction of our secondary school at Mbazzi Riverside and opening the doors of the school to 80 pre-school and pre-primary students providing education to children from 3 years old. This will significantly increase the quality of education being provided to our students, increase health and nutrition and further differentiate the level of education SFL provides to the community. Congratulations must be extended to the team on ground in Uganda, whose hard work and dedication continues to go from strength to strength. From the construction team, cleaners, cooks, maintenance, security and teachers, our Ugandan staff continues to work above and beyond to ensure Katuuso Primary and Vocational and Mbazzi Riverside Schools run effectively. The 28th of May 2016 saw our most successful Black Tie Fundraising Ball to date, with a huge $370,000 raised. A special thank you to all our supporters who helped us to achieve this milestone. We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to all the volunteers who dedicate their time and energy to assisting School for Life to increase its impact both in Australia and Uganda. Thank you to the Board of Directors, whose commitment to SFL’s strategy, risk management and governance ensure that we continue to grow as an organisation. The projects that SFL implements in Uganda have a transformative impact on the local communities and we are excited to be a part of the ongoing growth and development of the organisation. Please take the time to visit our website, view the videos and pictures of this year’s progress and read more about the journey ahead. Thank you once again for your support, Linda O’Brien AM and Ben Colman Co-Chairs 2 Annual Report 2016 1.2 MESSAGE FROM OUR CEO What an incredible year it has been! The construction and opening of Mbazzi Primary School (which will be used as Mbazzi Secondary School in 2018) has certainly been the highlight…. Words can’t describe the feeling of seeing 80 bright, happy children coming to school for the very first time. It’s magic! Katuuso Primary and Vocational School continues to grow from strength to strength. This year, we educated 320 students, built an Early Childhood Development centre, assembly hall and tailoring centre, another 10 teacher houses, and 2 100,000L underground water tanks to provide clean drinking water to the entire community. We continue to support our Ugandan staff and further develop their capacity with skills enrichment programs throughout the holidays. We had our first graduates of the adult literacy program who were extremely grateful for the opportunity to learn to read and write, an opportunity they otherwise would never have been afforded. Our animal husbandry and tailoring programs are expanding and the funds we raise are going directly back into the operations of our schools. We now have more than 100 goats and nearly 100 pigs in our piggery. We have even set up a medical clinic to ensure the students and wider community has access to health care which has seen a marked reduction in absenteeism due to the treatment of diseases like malaria, colds, typhoid and stomach pain. All of this is due to your generous support and to the amazing, hard work of our team in Australia and Uganda. Particular thanks must be given to our Uganda Country Director Angela Mwebaze, Operations Manager Ashley Meek, Construction and Agriculture Manager David Avery, Director of Schools Janepher Kintu, Foreman Dickson Candia, Finance Manager Cedric D’Mello, Project Manager Kessia Lum and Head Teacher Robert Kasio for their continued management and leadership. I would also like to convey my sincere thanks to our Board of Directors for their continued guidance and generosity of time, and to our staff, supporters, benefactors and volunteers in Australia and Uganda. Without you, none of our the huge progress we are achieving is possible. With your support, we are looking forward to another productive and successful year ahead, and to the continued growth and impact of School for Life. Annabelle Chauncy OAM CEO and Founding Director 3 Annual Report 2016 2 ABOUT US 2.1 OUR VISION To address poverty through the provision of education in developing countries, applying holistic, community-led, scalable and sustainable development practices.

  • Enhancing Women's Participation in Forestry Management Using Adaptive Collaborative Management
    Global Landscapes Forum Lessons for gender-responsive landscape restoration, GLF Brief 6 | August 2018 Enhancing Women’s Participation in Forestry Management Using Adaptive Collaborative Management The Case of Mbazzi Farmers Association, Mpigi District Uganda Concepta Mukasa and Alice Tibazalika Key Messages Adaptive Collaborative Management (ACM) is a collective problem-solving and management approach in which everyone can participate, contribute knowledge and learn how to solve important challenges together. Here, women’s leadership capacity is demonstrated using this method to achieve the shared vision of a forest user group. Mixed groups of men and women offer pathways for women’s empowerment in forest management, as deliberate support from men boosts the confidence of women and minimizes domestic conflict. Men are important actors in strengthening women’s rights and overall empowerment by supporting them, boosting their morale and allocating them land to plant their own trees. The ACM approach gave local communities ownership, empowering them to restore degraded forestlands and improve their livelihoods by setting up alternative income-generating projects. Strong linkages and networking with supporting institutions, such as the National Forest Authority, are essential to successful forest landscape restoration. Introduction equality.
