Friday 25th September

Page 2: Katine Community Partnerships Project Conceptual Framework

The Development need: Soroti, in eastern Uganda, is five hours drive from Uganda’s capital city, Kampala. It is one of the poorest districts in the countrywith more than 77% of the population living on less than a $US1 a day. AMREF identifies priorities and allocates resources on a pro-poor basis, givingpriority to people and communities that we believe to be the most vulnerable. Katine is a Sub-County in Soroti district and was selected because of thehigh levels of poverty, the negative impacts the civil war and rural – urban migration are having on the area, and because, as an area reliant onagriculture, it is being badly affected by changing climate patterns. There is currently a gap between the formal services being provided by Governmentstructures and interventions, and the local community, which is especially marked in a rural setting such as Katine.

What we are hoping the project will achieve: Poverty reduction, better health, access to education, increased income and a role in decision making areall inter-related. In order to improve the lives of those living in Katine we will deliver an integrated project, working to support the community in all theseareas. At the highest level the project has been designed with 5 goals in mind:

Improved community health

Improved access to quality primary education

Improved access to safe water, sanitation and hygiene

Improved income generating activities

Communities empowered to engage in local governance

By encouraging development in all these areas the project will change the lives of those living in Katine, but not just for the three years that the project isactive. By empowering the community to engage in local governance, and providing them with knowledge around health, hygiene, safe water andagriculture, as well as improving the quality of education available to young people in Katine, this project can bring lasting change.

How we are going to approach this: AMREF works with the poorest and most vulnerable people in Africa, therefore our interventions mirror thisapproach. The project will target those who will benefit from the project the most. In healthcare this means prioritising PLWHA, CU5,women and youngpeople. In education we work to target gender imbalances, as well as working to ensure that those with disabilities can access schooling.

This project will be implemented through community partnering; that means the project team will work with members of the community throughout thedevelopment, planning and implementation process. By working with Farmers’ Groups, VHTs, PTAs, and by establishing community committees, forexample Water Source Committees, community members will be at the centre of their own development, and have a key stake in decision making. Theproject will therefore be responsive to community needs and priorities, and through community participation the interventions will be owned by thecommunity, so that many developments can continue beyond the 3 year lifespan of the project.

This project will build the capacity of these community organisations, and the local Government (at District, Sub-County and parish level) to manage theirown development. This will be done by improving the gathering and use of community based information – for example, supporting health centres tomonitor levels of essential medicines, providing the Sub-County with planning and budgeting training, and encouraging community management ofprimary schools. Across these groups the project will work to develop the skills of both formal workers (teachers, health workers, Government employees)and the community volunteers who are delivering essential services to the community, for example the village health teams. AMREF believes that in orderfor development to succeed the gap between communities and Government needs to be closed. Therefore this project will work with local governmentstructures to support them to work with Katine. This project will strengthen and further develop AMREF’s model for community based development.

Objective

10 preventable diseasescause 75% of prematuredeaths. The most significantare peri-natal and maternalconditions, malaria, acuterespiratory infections,HIV/AIDS and diarrhoea whichaccount for 60% of thedisease burden in Uganda.

There is poor quality andutilization of prevention,treatment and care servicesdue to lack of funds, lack ofand uneven distribution ofhuman resources, poormanagement and systems,lack of medical equipment,inadequate and interruptedsupplies of medicines andother supplies.

Rural areas have worst healthindicators and greaterinequalities in access to basichealth services and safe waterand sanitation. Cost anddistance to health facilitiesprevent many people fromseeking care.

MOH priority focus is tooperationalise health subdistricts and village healthteams to achieve moreeffective and equitabledelivery of cost-effectiveinterventions.

Lack of appropriate knowledgeand behaviours, withunderlying social andeconomic factors, contribute topoor health status. And thereis low community awarenessand participation in politicaland planning process forhealth services and otherbasic services.

OutcomesOutputsActivities (Inputs)Sub-

Objective

Katine sub-county has experienced

repeated cycles of conflict over the

past 20 years which have eroded the

asset base of rural communities.

Rural livelihoods are currently still

recovering from the most recent LRA

incursion in 2003.

Farmers have gained access tosome new varieties of crops &

livestock; lack support to build the

management capacity of their

groups; have no linkage with

research institutions to test new

varieties through on-farm trials and

have very limited formal access to

veterinary services. The current

system of farmer groups is seen by

non-members as selective andexclusive.

Recent upheaval and displacement

has eroded organised access to

markets. Farmers’ linkage to other

districts is usually through

middlemen who negotiate with

individual farmers to drive product

prices down. Farmers generally do

not collectively market, store to get

the best price or add value throughprocessing and lack capacity and

knowledge to put these key value

addition processes in place.

Climate change has made rainy

seasons less predictable Farmers

need to adapt to these changes

through access to new crop varieties,

environmental management & other

livelihoods support.

Valuable support has been provided

through both the NAADS programme

and NGO interventions, especially to

assist those most affected by conflict

to resume productive agriculture. But

there is no formal information

exchange mechanism to ensure that

efforts by different agencies are

better coordinated, share valuable

experience or even jointly plan andsupport certain interventions

A. Group formation stage:

Wealth ranking & group formation (2-3/parish = 10-15)

Baseline benchmarking

Training needs assessment

B. Capacity building stage

Strengthening group management skills, leadership,

group planning & financial management

Exchange visits with other CBOs, institutions in Uganda

KATINE COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS PROJECT CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK

Using farmer participatory research methodology to

address production-related priorities and enhance linkage

with formal research institutions such as Serere NSARRI

Diagnostic surveys to identify key crop priorities &

varieties to test; farmer innovation with selected

technologies; establish and support on-farm trials; on-farmopen days, farmer-to-farmer extension

Community animal health worker training and follow-up

Capacity of rural institutions is

enhanced: - 15 rural innovation

Objective

Decentralisation of basicservices in Uganda is stuck atthe district level and is yet tomake a dent in theimprovement to the lives of75% of people living below the$1 a day poverty line in ruralareas.

There is a disconnect betweenformal structures and systemsand community needs andpriorities. This manifests itselfas a lack of participation of thevulnerable in setting prioritiesand deciding on resourceallocation.

Whilst most nationalgovernment policiesemphasise the role ofcommunity participation insustainable development thereare no commensurateresources and programmes toensure that communities arefully empowered to own theirown development processes.

A poor information base at thecommunity level hamperseffective prioritisation andplanning and pro-poorresource allocations by theformal system at district andnational levels.
