FOWODE was founded in 1994 to pursue the vision of a Ugandan society where, in all spheres, public and private, women and men shared equally in decision-making. FOWODE works at the national level and in 13 districts across Uganda. Since its inception, the organisation has trained over 20,000 women who have influenced the passing of local and national level gender related laws. The grant will be used as a general operating grant to support FOWODE’s mandate.
