UDHA is committed to working closely with Mbale and local partners to create a healthier, more resilient community.

Participants' View point .

Our expectations as a district are quite much since the  girl child has been called on board leaving out the boy child, this to us leaves a gap looking at our culture and setups in the region.

Shall the child girl receive comprehensive funding right from the adoption.

Is the program trying to scale down the reproductive dominance since girl child is key.

UDHA TARGET AND RESPONSE 

However the partner wishes to involve 2600 girls in both entities of the city and 
 district together with their sexual partners, and both will benefit from clinical and carriculum interventions, condom programming, economic empowerment and social asset building.
