Kampala, Uganda – UNICEF has launched a comprehensive initiative to support the education of 5,000 vulnerable girls in Uganda’s West Nile, Lango, and Acholi sub-regions. This effort, funded by the European Union (EU), is part of the Cashplus Programme for Girls in Secondary School, designed to help young women overcome economic and social barriers that threaten their education.
The Cashplus Programme operates under the broader Gender for Development Uganda (G4DU) initiative, a significant EU-backed program aimed at enhancing educational access and gender equity. The initiative targets girls in the districts of Adjumani, Yumbe, Lamwo, Nebbi, Oyam, Madi-Okollo, and Kitgum. Beneficiaries will be enrolled in government-supported Universal Secondary Education (USE) schools and receive financial support to facilitate their academic journey.
