Through the Pro-Poor Integrity Programme, TIRI-Making Integrity Work and Foundation for Human Rights Initiative aim to strengthen capabilities, responsiveness and accountability to improve the prospects of meeting the Millennium Development Goals locally and by extension nationally. The programme, funded by the UK Department for International Development is implemented in different countries, Uganda being one of them.

The two partners firmly believe in the need to improve local and national governance for the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals and recognise the important contribution and role Community Based Organisations, local public administrations and elected representatives play for this purpose.

FHRI together with four local partners implemented the programme in the four districts of Wakiso, Bushenyi, Tororo and Kamuli through Community Based Organisations. Through the use of local monitors based in the target districts, the programme focused on monitoring the nature and extent of service delivery in the following sectors:

1.       Health

2.       Education

3.       Sanitation and Water

4.       Social Protection and

5.       Dispute Resolution Mechanisms
