I welcome you to this annual reporton the theme Partnering forImproved Child Well-being.One of <strong>World</strong> <strong>Vision</strong>’s aspirationsfor the well-being of children is tosee that they enjoy good health,but over time we have realized that<strong>World</strong> <strong>Vision</strong> cannot ensure this onits own. We need to work togetherwith other players, and this is thebasis of the theme for this year’sannual report.Today, around 24,000 children underthe age of five will die around theworld. Their deaths will be causedby malaria, pneumonia, diarrhea,AIDS and complications duringpregnancy and after birth.Two thirds of these deaths arepreventable. There are measuresthat can be taken to avert them,only that these measures arenot being deployed on the scalerequired to tackle the problem. Thisis why <strong>World</strong> <strong>Vision</strong> has launchedthe Child Health Now (CHN)campaign, a five-year initiativeaimed at preventing malaria andimproving nutrition among childrenand mothers. This campaign will goFrom the Board Chairmana long way in enabling WVU realizeits aspiration of enabling children toachieve good health.I reiterate that WVU will not beable to improve the health ofchildren in Uganda acting on itsown. Partnerships have becomeincreasingly important in this dayand age, and WVU has partneredwith the Government, otherCivil Society Organisations andthe communities not only for theCHN campaign but also in otherprogrammes. In this financial year,therefore, the organization embracedpartnerships in a more holistic way.Partnerships are importantbecause different entities havedifferent strengths. They can enableorganisations to downplay theirweaknesses and capitalise on thosethings that they do best. Partneringalso facilitates the continuity ofinitiatives in our programme areaswhen WVU transits out and makesmobilisation of people aroundpertinent issues easier. Furthermore,when you partner, you enter andengage in networks, which facilitatesinteraction between experts indifferent areas thus building theircapacity.It is therefore important that webuild the staff’s capacity to work withpartners and also WVU’s capacity toenter into collaborations and subgrantfunds to other players such asCommunity-Based Organisations. Weenvisage that increased investmentsin working with and through bothoperational partnerships at the fieldlevel and strategic partnerships atthe national level will result intoimprovements in children’s welfare.I thank all the partners that wehave worked with for trusting andcollaborating with us. I also thank allour Support Offices, sponsors anddonors without whose diligence andgenerosity WVU would not be ableto reach out to communities to themagnitude it does. In the next financialyear our partnerships will be strongerand more solid as we endeavour tocontribute to the development andwell-being of children, their familiesand communities.Richard Obura OnyangBoard Chairman.Partnerships have become increasingly important in thisday and age, and WVU has partnered with the Government,other Civil Society Organisations and the communitiesiiiAnnual Report 2010


ivAnnual Report 2010For the past 25 years, <strong>World</strong><strong>Vision</strong> Uganda has sought totransform the lives of childrenand the communities in whichthey live with a vision for everychild to ‘enjoy life in all its fullness’.This annual report highlightsthe progress and impact ofWVU’s work in 2010 under thetransformational development,advocacy and humanitarianemergency relief pillars.It draws attention to the importanceof reaching out to the poor andmost vulnerable communitiesthrough working in collaborationwith various partners underthe new ‘Integrated ProgrammingModel’ (IPM).<strong>World</strong> <strong>Vision</strong> embarked on IPM toenable local-level staff to workeffectively with partners towardsthe sustained well-being ofchildren within families andcommunities. The model wasestablished to reinforce the <strong>World</strong><strong>Vision</strong> Partnership’s decision torefocus on four child well-beingaspirations, which are that boysand girls: enjoy good health; areeducated for life; experience thelove of God and their neighboursand are cared for, protected andparticipating.Through IPM, WVU will:From the National Directora) Contribute to the sustainedwell-being of children withinfamilies and communities.b) Work effectively with localpartners because WVU’smost valuable input is toenable community groups,local organisations and otherpotential partners to workmore effectively towardsimproving and sustaining childwell-being.c) Equip local level staff with skillsin serving as catalysts, brokersand builders of the capacity oflocal partners contributing tochild well-being.d) Design parameters andguidance for basic elements ofprogramme designs includingtarget populations, geographicalsize, life span and cycle, disastermanagement, resourcingand governance as well assponsorship programmingwhere applicable.To complement local level partners,WVU has established a number ofrelationships at district and nationallevel. All clusters have signedmemoranda of understanding(MoUs) with districts. At the nationallevel, WVU has signed MoUs withThe Daily Monitor (Newspapers inEducation), Ministry of Health andthe Forum for Education NGOs inUganda (FENU).Under advocacy, WVU launchedthe Child Health Now campaign.This is <strong>World</strong> <strong>Vision</strong>’s first globalhealth campaign. In our HIV andAIDS programming, the two highestprogramming priorities are to carefor orphans, children living withHIV and other vulnerable childrenand their households and HIVprevention for girls, boys and youthfrom five to 24 years of age.To completement local levelpartners, WVU has establisheda number of relationships atdistrict and national level.The Northern UgandaComprehensive Water, Sanitationand Hygiene project was launchedin this financial year. Supported byRotary <strong>International</strong>, the project’sgoal is to reduce morbidity andmortality due to water, sanitationand hygiene-related diseases inKitgum, Pader, Amuru and Guludistricts.We continued supporting primaryeducation because we believethat education should lead to thedevelopment of a child’s well-being.This was done through support tobasic education and vocational skillstraining.I am thankful to the partnerswho have worked with WVU totransform the lives of children andtheir communities. I am also gratefulfor the commitment and tirelessefforts of the Board and staff ofWVU who work hard and investtheir lives in serving and changingthe lives of the poor.Enjoy reading this report!Rudo KwarambaNational Director.


Introduction<strong>World</strong> <strong>Vision</strong> Uganda (WVU) during 2010 continuedto make strides in its contribution to the developmentof Uganda, especially in contributing to communitytransformation and the well-being of children. This wasa continuation of the relief, community developmentand advocacy programmes the organization has beenimplementing since 1986 when the first relief andresettlement initiatives were started to help resettledistricts in central Uganda that had been devastatedby the 1981-87 war.<strong>World</strong> <strong>Vision</strong> Uganda in 2010 grew by leaps andboundsThe numbers below provide a glimpse of the majorWVU achievements during 2010: 29: the number of districts that WVUoperated in. 59: the number of Area DevelopmentProgrammes (ADPs) supported by theorganization. 101: the number of sub-counties whereWVU operated. 128,000: the number of registeredchildren who benefitted from WVUcommunity development programmes. 1,950,000: the number of peopleresiding in sub-counties where WVU hadprogrammes. 65,232,197: the total in US dollars(equivalent of Ug Shs. 141 billion) thatthe organization spent on programmes inUganda.Another major landmark during the year was thedesign and implementation of the new NorthernUganda Strategy for 2010-12 that focuses on thetransition from post-war relief to recovery anddevelopment.This strategy involves the establishment of AreaRecovery Programmes (ARPs) rather than AreaDevelopment Programmes (ADPs) in the districtsof Amuru, Gulu, Kitgum and Pader that cover thefollowing sectors: education, health and HIV/AIDS,water, sanitation and hygiene, vocational skillstraining, peace building and psychosocial support.Another major achievement was the implementationof the <strong>World</strong> <strong>Vision</strong> worldwide Child Health Now(CHN) campaign in Uganda, aimed at promotingMillennium Development Goal 4 regarding reducingdeaths of children below five years of age by twothirdsby the year 2015. Working with partners,WVU focused on reducing malaria and improving thefeeding of children and mothers with more balanceddiets.WVU received funding from a variety of sourcesWVU Area Development Programmes in Ugandareceived sponsorship and donor funding from 13countries: Australia Canada Finland Germany Hong Kong Japan Korea Netherlands1Annual Report 2010
