We helped LARA sub-grantees develop local structures for reporting cases of violence against children in schools and refer cases to support services in the community.
USAID THROUGH RTI INTERNATIONL
13 DISTRICTS IN UGANDA
2017 - 2018
Through a one year sub-contract from RTI International’s USAID/Uganda-funded Literacy Achievement and Retention Activity (LARA), we helped LARA sub-grantees develop local structures for reporting cases of violence against children in schools and refer cases to support services in the community.
We developed a School Community Case Management (SCCM) curriculum for use in 13 districts in Uganda. Based on early successes with this approach in Hoima District, we conducted a case study on the effectiveness of case management practices, including Village Case Care Management Committees, to prevent and respond to school-related gender-based violence.
