Le besoin : quel problème tentez-vous de résoudre ?
The process of transition in Uganda has presented challenges, opportunities and new roles for the women of Bukedea. It has also exposed development-related pressures and problems that previously were not so acute or did not exist. The degree of satisfaction with existing opportunities for personal and professional development directly influences the behaviour and expectations of women. In turn, their potential to reach an acceptable quality of life materially, healthily and behaviourally is greatly diminished. Situation analyses of the women sector reveal many challenges young people are facing, including:
Poverty at a rate of 44.7 %, unemployment level among women is 13.4%, Access to education the perception of 88% of women in rural areas, ICT access and skills at 79.9%
La solution: quelle solution proposez-vous ? Soyez précis !
The project objective is to support women social inclusion and civic engagement by developing key social competencies necessary for pro-active women involvement in society and decision-making processes, thus providing support to further enhancement of Government women policy. This will be achieved through: capacity development of Women Centres, women volunteers, and local volunteer-involving organizations/schools; development of competencies of young women and men for active involvement in society and local level decision-making; development of social competencies of young women and men through e-learning, on-line learning, and knowledge hub resources; fostering inter-generational equity and social solidarity via creation of a living heritage treasury; popularization of volunteerism among both young women and men, and its further development; Introduction of volunteerism to community stakeholders as a support mechanism for achieving local government, public and private sector goals.

The Centre to flourish, effectively discharge its mandate, it is imperative that it embraces ICT in all its operations. The Centre is in the process of formulating an appropriate information management system to monitor and evaluate the women's social needs and an efficient way of disseminating information to all actors in this field. This technology will make the centre a fully fledged resource outfit that will enhance and meet its objectives unlike earlier similar ones that failed. ICT has relevance to the day-to-day livelihood of women. Community ignorance, political issue can affect the growth and more probably partners in the field of women

Création de l'organisation : nous voulons tout savoir sur votre déclic. Expliquez-nous oú et quand les fondateurs se sont rendu compte que cette solution possédait un véritable potentiel pour changer le monde.
In many countries of the world, it had been shown that government and industry have made considerable contribution to their national development goals through judicious application ICT. Great strides in technological innovations have made it possible for rural-urban communities to have access to the digital world at affordable costs. These technologies are also recognized as important tools in achieving the MDGs and in supporting the goals of the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) as expressed in Geneva (2003) and Tunis (2005). As enunciated by the WSIS Declaration of Principles, the building of an inclusive Information Society shall be pursued through partnerships and cooperation among governments and other stakeholders, i.e., the private sector, civil society and international organizations (A-17).
