The project is expected to mobilized women in 128 women groups to enhance their participation in leadership in the district of Gulu, Luweero, Kibuku, Amuria, and Rukungiri respectively.

The women drawn from the four sub-counties of Kabweri, Kituti, Kagumu Kasasira, and Nandere in Kibuku district were also tipped on how to make an effective speech, management of electoral violence, human rights, effective use of media, and Dos and don’ts during polling day.

Amina Namusungu, a participant said the training was timely and the knowledge acquired will help them against repeating past mistakes during primaries.

Jane Kataike, another participant appealed to FOWODE not only impart knowledge to them but should fund their campaigns.

Fazila Namwabira, the FOWODE community facilitator said the training was intended to enhance the capacity of women aspirant’s in leadership and equip them with relevant knowledge and skills in effective electoral campaign management and gender-responsive leadership.
