MUCOBADI

MUCOBADI was started in 2000 in Bugiri District Uganda by Community Development Volunteers to bring development to the area, but in particular to support productive and active people to live longer and continue contributing to the development of the area. First registered as a CBO in 2003 and later in 2008 by the National NGO Board as a Non-Government Organisation (No: S.5914/7569) and incorporated as a company limited by guarantee, MUCOBADI has signed MOUs and worked with more than 15 Local Governments in Northern Uganda, Eastern Uganda, Central and Karamoja region. MUCOBADI is steered by a Board of Directors (BoD) who set policy guidelines to allow for the operation of the secretariat. MUCOBADI’s secretariat has grown over time and is managed by a 48 person team headed by an Executive Director and assisted by experienced and qualified Programs, M&E, Finance management teams. The staff are experienced in project planning and management, livelihoods, HIV, reproductive Health programming, policy analysis, monitoring & evaluation, civic empowerment and use of several transformative and behavior change approaches.

This has come with sound financial management policies, procedures for both financial management and administration and accounting.
