Commemoration of district women’s day in Namutumba and Kamuli districts

In celebration of Women’s Day and Women's Month, Uganda Women’s Network marked the District Women’s Day on March 18, 2025, with a community dialogue held at Namutumba health Centre III. The event, under the theme "Accelerate Action", brought together health workers, district stakeholders, and expecting mothers to advocate for improved women’s health services and reproductive rights.

Mentorship of women farmer groups and sectors

UWONET is supporting women farmers in Lamwo and Nwoya districts through a mentorship program enhanced by the engagement of agricultural extension workers. These experts are guiding the farmers in selecting suitable enterprises for the March–June 2025 planting season, while also providing practical, hands-on training in agronomic practices throughout the production cycle.
