Abstract:
The study was undertaken to establish the role of
International Non-Government Organizations (INGOs) in
poverty reduction efforts in Uganda, focusing on Care
International, an international NGO operating in Rukiga
District in South-Western Uganda.
Description:
The study found that several children in poor homes were
provided with a chance to undertake formal education by
Care International. It also found that Care International
has achieved success in ensuring that children have a
steady environment for improved development and
learning. The study found that Care International in its
anti-poverty efforts in Rukiga, did not offer livestock to
farmers, but extends assistance to the poor livestock
farmers by providing infrastructure for the marketing of
their livestock.
