INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY 2020


Theme: "I am Generation Equality: Realizing Women’s Rights”

The year 2020 is a year for advancing gender equality on Bussi Island Uganda and worldwide and, as we take stock of progress made for women’s rights since the adoption of the Beijing Platform for Action. It will also mark several other stimulating flashes in the gender equality drive towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals; 1,2,3,4,5,6, & 8.

The International Women’s Day; this is a day on which the role and importance of women is focused on and also when mistreatment of women or violations of women’s rights are addressed. Key stakeholders emphasizes the various services it provides for women and encourage women to get a higher education and to work towards meeting important life goals.
There are many women’s rights issues on the Islands of Bussi, like widespread domestic violence, sexual exploitation and abuse against women. In fact, around half of all women have suffered some form of domestic violence from their husband or partner. Also, many women suffer from awful poverty and have little opportunity to get a good education; Estimates say that more than 50% of Ugandan women have endured domestic violence at the hands of their partners.

EYDI has developed projects to attempt to improve the situation of women in Bussi Island, Uganda, East Africa but these efforts, are still subject to funding to materialize.

Our team is commit to  mobilize funds to strengthen programmes that  focus on empowering schools, families and communities in creating safe spaces for girls and women on Island to have access to education, health care and economically secure, family and community benefit too.

Therefore we will be part of the Pr-events Community Dialogue on Gender Equality and Rights for Young Women and Girls on 6TH. at Katwe Playground In Kampala and International Women's Day 2020 celebrations in Mbale Eastern Uganda to feel for all the women and families "affected by different negative defects of climate change especially women, girls and the children , we shall show case off with a March. Come one come all!
