May Leonard's soul rest in peace. We will forever remember his dedicated leadership and commitment to Violence Against Women and children prevention. Rest in peace Leonard Clement.

As the Domestic Violence Act Coalition, we know that caring for ourselves is essential to sustaining the movement for justice. Every time we convene, we hold wellness sessions that center self-care, reminding us that resilience begins within.

Last week,the Domestic Violence Act Coalition dedicated 3 days to deepening solidarity, enhancing our capacity for evidence based advocacy, and strengthening the resilience and sustainability of our coalition in the face of emerging challenges. It was a truly impactful convening.

@igagapy, @CEDOVIPuganda, reflected on the practical implications of implementing the @_AfricanUnion Convention on Ending Violence Against Women and Girls (AU-CEVAWG), particularly for Member States navigating resource and institutional constraints. She highlighted the importance of aligning continental ambition with national capacity, recognising that financing demands, reporting standards, and prosecution obligations under the Convention must be supported by realistic implementation pathways within the African Union system. #PauseForPurpose

African citizens must be meaningfully involved in shaping policy frameworks that affect the continent, and more deliberately, African women must be at the centre of these processes. 📌Join us under #PauseForPurpose today,9:00am-11:00am on 🔗 meet.google.com/tgb-jvsn-ktt

It has been widely recognised that African citizens must be meaningfully involved in shaping policy frameworks that affect the continent, and more deliberately, African women must be at the centre of these processes. It is against this background that, together with @WomenProbono, @amwaafrika, @Uganetlaw, and @CEDOVIPuganda, we are convening a critical consultative conversation on shaping Uganda’s voice on the @_AfricanUnion Convention on Ending Violence Against Women and Girls (AU-CEVAWG). This consultation forms part of preparations for the GIMAC-organised regional engagement, where countries including Uganda, Togo, and Senegal will host breakout sessions to share country-specific contexts and perspectives, all contributing towards the final processes of signing and ratification. We believe that strong, collective voices are essential to shaping meaningful engagement on this Convention. 📌Join us under #PauseForPurpose tomorrow, 9:00am-11:00am on 🔗 meet.google.com/tgb-jvsn-ktt

Today marks Day 1 of the Public Dialogues in Pallisa aimed at intensifying awareness on Gender-Based Violence (GBV) and its growing linkages to climate change. Creating safe spaces for open conversations allows community members, leaders and stakeholders to collectively reflect.

"Sovereignty bill will be rendered unconstitutional but at what cost? What damage will be done? It cannot pass the constitutional test." ~ @SarahBireete on the xspace by @CEDOVIPuganda @WomenProbono Link: x.com/i/spaces/1YGNrZYLyQOGw #SovereigntyBillUG #RejectSovereigntyBill

Tune into our X Space tonight as we unpack Uganda's Sovereignty bill, its implications, and what it means for women in Uganda. Date: 28th April, 2026 Time: 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM Join us live!! x.com/i/spaces/1YGNrZYLyQOGw #SovereigntyBill #WomensRights

Power should never silence the voices it is meant to serve, especially the voices of women who are often most affected. Protect democracy, accountability, and the rights of every Ugandan, with a strong focus on women’s rights and gender equality. We stand firmly against the Protection of Sovereignty Bill, 2026, which undermines civic freedoms, public participation, and women’s rights. Uganda deserves laws that empower women and girls, not restrict them. #RejectTheSovereigntyBill

When girls are connected, they can safely report abuse, can access information about their rights, can reach support networks and services and eventually reclaim their power.#EmpowermentThroughAndInnovation

Huge appreciation to @BenTukei , our Eastern Regional Coordinator! Your determination to #EndChildMarriage in the region is inspiring. Thank you for successfully mobilizing your members for the #GTA training. This is what leadership looks like- Turning commitment into action.

Earlier this week @amwaafrika convened us for an engagement with the Dioraphte Foundation on the GBV landscape in Uganda. We explored ways to strengthen prevention and response interventions—working together to build safer communities and advance protection for all

Congratulations to @RaisingVoices on the launch of the Promoting Positive Mental Health Guide! This nationwide initiative will empower schools to create safer, more inclusive learning spaces that support the wellbeing of learners, teachers, and staff.#MentalHealth #Inclusion

Happening Today. With women & girls making up 98% of reported sex-related crime victims and survivors in Uganda, we need action to #EndSexualViolence. Join our Brown Bag session on preventing sexual violence, as we empower students to accountability and real change. #SAAM

Last week, we dedicated 3 days to engaging with members of the Referral Points Network in Kampala — including government institutions and CSOs supporting survivors of VAW. Together, we exchanged best practices and strengthened collaboration for more effective responses to VAW.

Today, on #WorldHealthDay, we think about what health really looks like for women at the grassroots, especially those who are working while caring for their families. As these street cleaners share the challenges they face, it’s a reminder that many working mothers, including breastfeeding women, often navigate long hours, limited support, and little space to meet their own health needs. Our work continues to push for environments that recognize, support, and protect women’s health and dignity as they work. 💚 #UNWomenProject

During the launch of the 2025 Annual Crime Report at the Uganda Police headquarters in Naguru, attended by our ED,Josephine Kamisya, the data presented underscored that significant work remains to ensure all forms of violence are effectively addressed,and prevented.
