Specifically, RFPJ rallies Ugandan communities and leaders on Uganda-Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) border of Busunga to contribute to cross border peace, security, trade and positive people-to people relations. Interventions appreciate indelible historical, social, economic and cultural interconnectedness between cross border communities. As an appreciation, RFPJ works to harness this interconnectedness as a foundation for igniting legitimate and people-centred discussions, policy proposals and mindset set change on aspects of peace, security, trade and free movement of people and goods across borders.<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; text-align: justify;\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 15.6933px; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; color: #000000; text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<div><strong>Accelerating Women&#8217;s Contribution to Pre-2025\/2026 Electoral Conflict Prevention in the Rwenzori Region<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/div>\n<div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; text-align: justify;\">Supported by the UN Women under the auspices of Women Peace and Humanitarian Fund, this project covers Uganda\u2019s five districts of Bundibugyo, Ntoroko, Kabarole, Kasese, and Kyenjojo.

Specifically, the project seeks to strengthen the organizational and technical capacities of at least 2,000 victims of past conflicts in the Rwenzori and Northern regions of Uganda in furthering victim-centered and responsive TJ. Lastly, the project aims at progressively influencing at least 200 policy makers, leaders, and other actors towards the implementation of the 2019 National TJ policy and enactment of the National TJ Act in a victim-centered and responsive manner.<\/span><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; text-align: justify;\">The project deliberately targets and engages with victims of different conflicts in the two aforementhioned regions, the Parliament of the Republic of Uganda, relevant Ministries, and other state and non-state actors involved in the furtherance of TJ at local, regional, and national levels. In these engagements, RFPJ strives to amplify voices of victims as first-hand advocates for their own rights, needs, and interests and creates platforms for them to dialogue with duty-bearers in shaping the direction of responses to their peculiar needs and interests.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph {\"textColor\":\"black\"} --><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph {\"textColor\":\"black\"} --><\/p>\n<p><strong>Closing the Gap: Secondary Education for all Girls in Ntoroko and Bundibugyo Districts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph {\"textColor\":\"black\"} --><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; text-align: justify;\">Supported by Saleve Foundation, this project targets Uganda\u2019s districts of Bundibugyo and Ntoroko neighboring the Eastern DRC.
