DSW joined hands with Tororo district local government to facilitate health facility work plan and budgeting workshop. The workshop took place at Tororo hospital and it was attended by 45 health facility in-charges.DSW is supported the
planning process, but also emphasized that health in-charges include Family Planning on their work plans.
DSW is not new in Tororo, we have a project called Youth to Youth and we also
successfully implemented a project called Women and Girls Empowerment (WOGE).
However we are going to implement a three year project called Securing Health
through Advocacy and People’s Empowerment (SHAPE).
Ms. Diana Tibesigwa, Advocacy Officer of DSW informed the participants about DSW planned activities for the district. "We
are here to ensure that health facilities consciously plan for their health
facilities," she said.
DSW has trained both youth and community champions who
will help us to advocate for family planing usage so that we address the unmet need. We
have 10 champions in each district. and we are going to develop Information Education Communication materials to
ease their work. We shall be organizing meetings with the health department so
that we discuss and solve issues of medicines supplies and management. Diana Tibesigwa, Advocacy Officer DSW. Photo By Esther Namirimu |
