Background/Rationale:
According to Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS), over 39% households in Uganda are still trapped in subsistence economy (producing food crops and rearing animals for family consumption only) with poverty levels standing at 20%, and 24% population are illiterate. In Uganda the average primary school dropout rate is 45% but this rate is much higher amongst girls thus being more vulnerable. This can be due to household poverty, lack of basic needs like good nutrition, clothing and child labour, or cultural reasons such as domestic chores, child marriages and teenage pregnancies.
Beneficiaries of the Bursary Project:
The target beneficiaries of the project are interested bright pupils/students from disadvantaged households and the neighbouring general communities.
