\u201cI am really excited that AWDF with support from the Gates Foundation is once again able to organize this important training. Last year, seventeen organisations \u00a0benefited from the training. Of these, 13 are already reporting steps put in place toward sound financial systems. As grant makers we understand the need to build strong women\u2019s organisations by investing in training \u00a0which \u00a0includes building sound financial management systems.\u201d\u00a0<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

The African Women\u2019s Development Fund (AWDF) is organizing its second Financial Management Training programme in collaboration with Orwa and Co, an accounting firm in Nairobi.\u00a0This specialized training, to be held from 12 \u2013 14th May 2015<\/strong> in Uganda, Kampala, \u00a0falls under AWDF\u2019s Capacity Building Programme\u2019s Technical Support Project.<\/span><\/p>\n

This forms part of AWDF\u2019s mandate to provide technical skills to grantees in order to ensure sound financial management of the grants disbursed and for improved project results. Last year, the inaugural training was organized for finance managers and officers in Kenya.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\"1st<\/a>
First Financial Management Training held in 2014 in Kenya.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The three-day training will bring together nineteen finance managers and officers from 18 grantee organisations from different parts of Uganda. The training will cover budgets and cash flow projections, in-context financial management, grant management, internal controls and checks, compliance with statutory requirements, and financial reporting among others.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The intended outcome is that \u00a0participants will gain insights and skills into developing sound financial systems that meet minimum international standards for any financial management including donor reporting.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ms. Juliet Acham who work as an Accounts Assistant at Gender Integrated Development Program (GIDP) in Mbale, Uganda said of the upcoming workshop:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI hope to improve on GIDP\u2019s organizational financial control systems, my own personal accounting skills and knowledge, meet donor financial expectations (as regards to transparency and accuracy in Accounting) and to meet and make new friends from other organizations.\u201d<\/i><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

These technical support projects are designed to respond to the organisational development needs of grantees and women\u2019s rights organisations in Africa.<\/span><\/p>\n
