The agreement launches Phase III of the SAFER Project (2026–2029) – Sexual and Reproductive Health, Access to Justice, Freedom, Equality and Rights – under the leadership of the @MOJCA and the @Mglsd_UG. What SAFER III will deliver: Building on Phases I & II, the project will expand survivor-centred access to justice, uphold SRHR, and address GBV across Karamoja, Acholi and Lango sub-regions, targeting 830,872 direct beneficiaries – primarily women, adolescent girls, persons with disabilities and underserved communities. Key interventions include: ▶️Scaling up integrated SRHR, GBV prevention & response, and legal services ▶️Strengthening institutional capacity – ODPP, Uganda Police Force, Uganda Prison Service, UHRC, Local Council Courts – to reduce case backlogs through special court sessions and ADR ▶️Advancing social transformation by tackling harmful practices including FGM, child marriage, and emerging forms of violence such as technology-facilitated GBV “This support reflects Austria’s continued commitment to strengthening the rule of law and protecting the rights of vulnerable populations,” said @Dr_KatjaK, Head of Austrian Embassy in Uganda “By streamlining integrated health, justice, and protection services, UNFPA is committed to ensuring that every survivor of GBV receives rapid, dignified, and survivor-centered support,” said Ms. Kristine Blokhus, @UNFPAUganda Country Representative. The programme uses a systems-strengthening approach, embedding into national structures for sustainability, with CSOs such as @uwonet. This is fully aligned with Uganda’s Fourth National Development Plan (NDP IV). We thank the Government of Austria and UNFPA for this continued partnership. #JusticeForAll
