Janestic Mwende Twikirize - Makerere University

This report presents findings of two components of a Rapid Assessment of Catholic Care for Children in Uganda. The objective of the assessment was to examine the emerging legal framework pertaining to child protection and its implications for Catholic sisters and brothers who work with vulnerable children and their families. The two components presented in this report refer to the emerging legal framework and the training and education opportunities for social work, child protection and alternative care. Information for the assessment was collected between October and November 2015 through a review of secondary documents, telephone and face to face interviews as well as electronically completed questionnaires.
