Empowering Women and Girls - EPISODE 3

This video explores the ongoing journey to achieve justice and equality for women and girls in Uganda. Despite a rich cultural heritage and progressive policies, women continue to face challenges in accessing justice, especially in areas like family disputes, employment, property rights, gender-based violence, and sexual health.

We delve into these challenges through interviews with stakeholders, including civil society representatives and project partners. Discover how initiatives like "FATE" (From Access to Equality), led by Avocats Sans Frontiers, are empowering women to pursue justice and hold decision-makers accountable.

The video also highlights the crucial role of organizations like the Uganda Women's Network, Barefoot Law, and Penal Reform International in creating momentum for change. Through advocacy, capacity building, and legal aid, they are ensuring women's voices are heard and their rights are protected.

Hear inspiring stories from survivors and beneficiaries who have been supported on their path to justice. Learn about the concrete impact of projects like the revamped GBV advisory centers and shelters, which have provided essential services to countless women and girls.

Despite the progress made, the fight for gender equality is far from over. The video concludes by emphasizing the continued need for advocacy, empowerment, and systemic change to create a truly just and equitable society for all in Uganda.
