    Über das Programm

    SustainMe works with underprivileged women and girls whose rights are often violated. Every day, women and girls with disabilities experience multiple forms of abuse, exclusion, and discrimination, which are harmful to their well-being and development. Many are denied access to education, healthcare, economic opportunities, and even basic protection.

    The Disability Inclusion and Empowerment Officer will be instrumental in this program by advocating for the rights of women and girls with disabilities and promoting their inclusion in the community. The volunteer will act as a point of contact, connecting disabled women and girls to services, resources, and support systems.

    Key Responsibilities:

    • Promote and Lead Disability Rights Campaigns: Provide training and sensitization to women and girls with disabilities about their rights. Empower them to advocate for themselves and take action to improve their access to opportunities and services.
    • Provide Rehabilitation, Counselling, and Support: Offer guidance, counselling, and emotional support to women and girls with disabilities who experience abuse, exclusion, or discrimination.
    • Referral of Beneficiaries:  Link women and girls with disabilities to specialized services, such as healthcare, education, vocational training, and legal aid. Collaborate with partners and stakeholders to ensure comprehensive support for beneficiaries.
    • Document Services Available:  Compile and maintain a directory of all disability-inclusive services and programs available within the community and beyond.
    • Plan and Host Stakeholder Meetings: Organize and facilitate meetings with stakeholders to discuss challenges, brainstorm solutions, and promote the rights of women and girls with disabilities.
    •  Organize Advocacy Activities: Coordinate marches, community dialogues, and awareness campaigns to amplify the voices of women and girls with disabilities and highlight their rights.
    •  Ensure Access to Medical Care and Essential Services:  Collaborate with healthcare providers, social workers, and other service providers to ensure survivors of abuse and discrimination receive medical care, rehabilitation, and other essential resources.

    Unterkunft

    We are interested in helping our volunteers learn more about Uganda and the culture here so the accommodation provided is with a host family. And our organization pays the family for the time the volunteer stays there. Unless if the volunteer wants to stay in a hotel, then we can have a special arrangement.

    The beauty of the volunteer having the accommodation with a family is that you get to learn more about the culture in Uganda, get friends, learn about the local behaviors and history, and always in a company of someone. The host family selected always meets standards of our organization and are always ready to host you.

    The accommodation consists of one bed room and a bathroom. However, for volunteers visiting as a family or couple, we have a special arrangement for you as you get accommodated as a family in Guest house or hotel. But if you prefer to stay with a family host then we make arrangement that way.

    Verpflegung

    Since our Volunteers are hosted with the family, they share a meal and drinks with the host family. In the host family, more of the Ugandan dishes are prepared. If the volunteer wants to eat special meals then we also arrange for that. However, once placed in a home, then the food and Drinks are all arranged through the family.

    The food includes Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. The meals include banana which is Uganda's staple food but here it is called Matooke, Beef, Beans, Posho, Greens, Potatoes, Chicken, Rice and Cassava. Breakfast consists of Milk, Bread, Egg, Fruit, Coffee, Rolex and Chapati. Most of these are local dishes, however special meals can always be arranged on request.

    If you are a vegetarian, we value you taste. Special meals can be arranged to fit your preference and taste.
