On average over 700 estimated children in Uganda, aged 3 to 17 are vulnerable and at protection risk. Their access to education has been interrupted due to humanitarian crises induced by protracted conflict, displacement, poverty, food and livelihood insecurity, effect of HIV/AIDs and the Covid-19 pandemic. During the three years’ period, PROFA Uganda Education Programme plans to provide access to education in emergency services to 10,000 Ugandan boys and girls. With a focus on the improved access to safe and protective education services, the programme will provide a formal and non-formal education programme for more than 10,000 emergency/crisis affected
children and youths from the host community, IDPs/refugees, IDP returnees and spontaneous refugee returnees. Through an integrated approach, the programme will ensure equitable access to quality and inclusive cross-sectoral basic services. By providing access to safe and secure learning spaces/ environments, children will benefit from key life-saving and life sustaining activities such as psychosocial support, water, safe learning environment, sanitation, and hygiene education and school feeding programme.
