CANHAVE2014 in Review

Uganda

Overflowing with natural beauty

Earning a living is difficult and consuming.

Every square inch is valued and needed for supporting

the population.

Uganda

Uganda has one of the fastest growing populations on earth.

Uganda

The image of Africa.

Why is CANHAVE working so hard, and why should you help?

WHAT DRIVES US?

Memorandum of Understanding Developed following the 2012 AGM & signed in December 2012

Objectives:

Formalize the partnership between CANHAVE CANADA and CANHAVE UGANDA

Further strengthen the Children’s Programme in providing the basic literacy skills of reading, writing and arithmetic to primary school children; and

Establish a pathway to financial sustainability of the Vocational School so that it may become financially independent within three years

Next Steps for the BoardWork with the Ugandan Children’s Programme Board to

monitor progress, to develop criteria and to create a mechanism to track pupils

Continue to develop policies with the Ugandan Board of Trustees as agreed to in the MOU

Focus on governance issues and questions

Expand Canadian fundraising activities

Next Steps for the Board

Empowering AIDS/HIV orphaned Ugandan girls through quality secondary education

Develop an evaluation design for implementation at the end of the three year agreement period

Less than 1 in 5 (19%) of public school teachers showed mastery of the curriculum

More than 1 out of 4 (27%) of teachers in public schools were not at work. Of those who were in school, about 1 in 3 (30%) were not teaching. The result is 40% of public school classrooms with no teacher teaching.

Teachers’ knowledge of the subjects they teach was very low, and the pedagogical skills to transform their knowledge into meaningful teaching were even lower.

What’s so scary about Smart Girls?May 10, 2014

By: Nicholas Kristof

“Why are fanatics so terrified of girls’ education? Because there’s no force more

powerful to transform a society.”

“Girls’ education can, in effect, almost double the formal labor force. It boosts the

economy, raising living standards and promoting a virtuous cycle of development.”

A promise made is a debt unpaid.

Thank you.

We really appreciate your ongoing support.

Your support has changed the lives of these children.

We are relying on your future support.

Together we can continue to change lives.
