Improve sanitary conditions at 7 schools in Uganda

Dear Donor,

we hope you are well! We'd like to bring you the news of our project at 7 schools in Alebtong, Uganda.

• Teachers have already gained theoretical knowledge through a workshop on holistic school development. However, it became clear that they lack the practical skills and methodological expertise needed for everyday school life.
  A comprehensive training program for all 89 teachers is intended to address this. This should enable them to create motivating, effective, and child-friendly learning environments.

• The construction of energy-efficient stoves has made it possible to introduce regular school meals. The goal is for costs to be fully covered by parental contributions after the project ends. However, implementation has shown that these contributions are not paid regularly and are affected by factors such as prolonged droughts with shorter rainy seasons and longer dry spells.
  Despite accompanying training sessions, it has become clear that the knowledge and implementation of gardening in schools, as well as parental contributions, have so far been insufficient to ensure sustainable food security for students.

For this reason, members of the school community are now receiving advanced training in gardening, supplemented by the provision of climate-resilient seeds. This will strengthen self-sufficiency in food production and ensure the long-term sustainability of school meals.
