EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF THE PROJECT

PROJECT TITLE:capacity building of 50000 poor teenage mothers in improved piggery through giving the next 4 kids/piglets to other beneficiaries until when our cluster teenage mothers are given then we enroll new members and trained on piggery management.

The overall goal of the project is economic empowerment and income generation for the young mothers. Focusing on building the capacities of abandoned young mothers, this will entirely spark off self reliance and skills development and this will enable them to be responsible in carrying out their own development means as well monotint and implementation of their projects. Involvement of these young mothers during implementation, they will have no cause to joint shanty work (prostitution) that put their lives in dangers of acquiring AIDS/HIV which has terminated many lives.

IDMC team is well –experienced, professionally qualified in relevant fields for grass-root development. Some of them engaged in government, community activities. After realizing and identifying that young mothers face many torturing situations by some parents and men who pregnant them they resort to prostitution .Hence our concerted efforts to save the situations and bring hope to these young mothers.

The project will take a period of one year with estimated costs USD 43500, local contributions USD 3333 and requested from Global Giving is USD 43500

However, the management of IDM compiled and approved this project proposal on condition that we will make a special appeal to GG and other funding agencies which take great concern of supporting suffering vulnerable teenage mothers in Kasese District. The situation is desperate

If the above fund is provided then it will act as a mitigation measure to enhance and systematically address many problematic issues faced by young teenage mothers.

PROJECT CONTEXT

This project has grown out of the increasing people’s suffering of Karusandara Kasese district following heavy torrential rains ands floods on 1st may2013 which affected 27350 people. 12 died and property destroyed. There was a lot of rapid deforestation Kasese , some schools, toilets swept away. Extensive soil erosion, poor environment, declining agricultural production and total human suffering. 700 people were displaced in schools and churches due to the threats of cholera.

(ii)

These people were forced into the neighborhood. In addition,IDMC Staff has stayed and pursued a base line survey that found 80% young mothers in Karusandara being abandoned by their parents due to early pregnancies/dropping out of school. Most of them have ended up moving to town to practice prostitution hence rendering them susceptible to acquire the scourge. As a result AIDs is very high among young mothers inaccordancy with the sub-county Health records. The situation is horrible.

Its identification as a priority project was jointly carried out with the local affected young mothers by early pregnancies and increased HIV scourge. This situation is aggravated further whereby the young mothers have no income generating programmes. Above all IDMC has burning desire of embarking on the most felt needs of engaging the selected vulnerable young mothers of engaging them in piggery project for sustainable economic empowerment.

This hampers their level of incomes for self sustainability among the rural farmers in the project area.
