Over the past years, Uganda has made great strides in reducing undernutrition in children under five. Nevertheless, 29% of Ugandan children aged 6-59 months are stunted (short for their age), 4% are wasted (thin for their height), 11% are underweight (thin for their age), and 4% are overweight (heavy for their height). Only 15% of children aged 6-23 months cannot access minimum acceptable diets and (53%) of children aged 6-59 months are anemic. (UDHS 2016), a situation worsened by the COVID-19 pandemic. To get to zero malnutrition and zero people without access to WASH services, 6 partners came together in a consortium to jointly implement a 5-year project in 6 countries funded by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs under the power of voices funding subsidy. At the global level, R2G consortium is composed of The Hunger Project(THP), World Vision(WV), Action Against Hunger (ACF), Save the Children(SC), CEGAA (South African based Centre for Economic Governance and Accountability in Africa) and Max Foundation (Dutch based organizations) implemented in Uganda, Mali, South Sudan, Bangladesh, Ethiopia and Burkina Faso. R2G partners in Uganda include THP-Uganda as the lead partner which also directly supports implementation in Kabale, Maracha, Bugweri and Nwoya, WV Uganda in Kamwenge, Kakumiro and Buliisa whereas ACF Uganda is in Adjuman, Arua and Kikube districts with technical support of CEGAA as a strategic partner. The project closely collaborates with National CSO partners like Civil Society Budget Advocacy Group(CSBAG), Food Rights Alliance, Nutrition Society of Uganda, Community Integrated Development Initiative and Movement for Community Led Development Uganda Chapter. Right2Grow seeks to use a multi-sectoral approach to spark and amplify the voices of communities to convince national and international leaders and officials make better choices that will lead the country to zero undernutrition and to zero people without access to basic WASH services.
