The Ugandan Problem and the Uganda Community SWEEP Solutions
The Ugandan Poverty and Hunger as well Health disparities, Educational and Gender inequalities, Climate Change Disasters and Environment injustices all correlate positively -either one leads to the others or exacerbates the others. However, failure to address these problems in an interconnected manner, partially lies in the African countries's institutional segmentation of the social service delivery system,with Uganda no exceptional i.e., the coexistence of subsystems, each ‘specializing’ in a different strata of the population according to type of specific challenges of the population; and predominance, within the subsystems, of programs targeting specific challenges, risks and populations (vertical programs) with no coordination or horizontal integration of other interconnected challenges particularly at bottom of the economic pyramid,leading to duplication of scarce resources and efforts, low coverage and unsatisfied customers.
Using the United Nations (UN) sustainable development goals (SDGs) as a standardized blue print of development challenges in Sub Saharan Africa, the Community SWEEP Programme brings the vision, vigor and practical expertise to address the African Service Delivery Fragmentation problem through a “one-stop center, integrated service delivery” approach. In its simplest form, the Community SWEEP term “integrated services” refers to joined-up social services, for the benefit of those in urgent need. The one-stop center, Integrated model approach is operationalized through three strategies that include support of (1) Rigorous Impact Evaluation (IE) of innovations; (2) Results-Based Financing (RBF) and (3) Social Entrepreneurship (SE).
The United Nations has exhaustively earmarked the benchmark Goals for the Global Sustainable for Development. Community SWEEP is on board to combine multiple proven strategies that yield multiple and measurable UN goal oriented results and impacts in Uganda .
Dear our current visitor and perhaps a current and future Partner(s) , you will always be glad and excited to learn more and news ways of how the Uganda Community SWEEP is measurably facilitating the achievement of the United Nations SD goals in Uganda .
