Strengthening partnerships for equitable education in Northern Uganda.
Last Friday, LABE joined Diakonia Uganda, Gulu Womenโs Economic Development and Globalization (GWED-G), and African Youth Development Link (AYDL) for the final day of a week-long learning and planning engagement in Gulu.
The day began with a peer review and reflection session, where partners shared lessons, challenges, and promising practices from the joint field monitoring visits, strengthening collaboration and identifying opportunities for shared learning.
The partners then held the inception meeting for the Breaking Children's Barriers to Equitable Education (BBEE) project, aligning on the project's vision, implementation approach, roles, safeguarding and accountability standards, work plans, and reporting requirements.
Over the next two years, the project will work to improve equitable access to quality education for vulnerable children across select districts in Northern Uganda and West Nile. As a project partner, LABE will strengthen community-based early childhood education through our Home-Based Early Childhood Development (HBECD) model, supporting Parent Educators, Youth Facilitators, caregivers, and communities to give every child the best possible start.
Together, we're breaking barriers so that more children, especially girls, refugee children, and children with disabilities, can access safe, inclusive, and quality learning opportunities.
