Challenge

Many women in Kampala and surrounding areas, especially widows, single mothers and young women aged 18-35, lack stable income due to limited skills, capital, and job opportunities. Poverty, caregiving burdens, and loss of family support push many into insecure livelihoods, leaving families vulnerable and dependent despite their contribution to national peace and stability.

Solution

This project will address income insecurity by providing one-week, hands-on skills training tailored to market demand. Women will gain practical income-generating skills, basic business knowledge, and mentorship, enabling them to start or improve small livelihoods, earn independently, and support their families with confidence and dignity

Long-Term Impact

By gaining practical income skills, women will increase their earning capacity, improve household stability, and reduce long-term dependence. As trained women start small businesses or income activities, families benefit from better nutrition, education, and well-being, while communities grow stronger through women-led economic participation and resilience.
