FCA was selected by the OPM and UNHCR as an implementing partner in education and livelihoods in Bidibidi, Yumbe district \u2013 one of the world\u2019s largest refugee settlements and works in several other settlements in the north and southwest of the country. In 2020, FCA also worked in Arua, Adjumani, Yumbe, Obongi, Koboko, Kamwenge, Kyegegwa, Mubende, Wakiso and Kampala.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the last two years, Covid-19 has drastically affected both the economy and the education system in Uganda. According to the United Nations Capital Development Fund, about half of informal businesses shut down after one month of lockdown, with severe repercussions on the food security situation. The Government ordered that all schools and other learning institutions to close in March. As a consequence, child abuse and domestic violence rose, especially in refugee settlements. Many children were forced to work and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kirkonulkomaanapu.fi\/en\/latest-news\/articles\/future-for-refugee-girls\/\">there was a rise in teenage pregnancies<\/a>. Although FCA reduced the number of staff in offices, programmes continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"youtube-embed\">        <div class=\"video-wrapper\">              <div class=\"consent-placeholder\"              data-category=\"cookie_cat_marketing\"              onClick=\"CookieConsent.renew()\">                 <div class=\"consent-placeholder-wrapper\">                      <div class=\"text-button-wrapper\">                        <p>Et ole hyv\u00e4ksynyt markkinoinnin ev\u00e4steit\u00e4 n\u00e4hd\u00e4ksesi videon.<\/p>                        <div>                            <button class=\"button red slim\" href=\"javascript:CookieConsent.renew()\">Muuta ev\u00e4steasetuksia<\/button>                        <\/div>                    <\/div>                <\/div>            <\/div>            <\/div>        <div class=\"video-image-oembed\" tabindex=\"0\" style=\"background-image:url('https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/uP7WtSAPeMM\/hqdefault.jpg')\"><i class=\"fas fa-play\"><\/i><\/div><div class=\"video-container oembed oembed-youtube\" data-video=\"&lt;iframe title=&quot;FCA established the first school for children with disabilities in Adjumani, Uganda&quot; width=&quot;500&quot; height=&quot;281&quot; src=&quot;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uP7WtSAPeMM?feature=oembed&amp;rel=0&amp;rel=0&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; allow=&quot;accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share&quot; referrerpolicy=&quot;strict-origin-when-cross-origin&quot; allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;\/iframe&gt;\"><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>FCA\u2019s other current donors in the refugee response include EU Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection (ECHO), Education Cannot Wait, The Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland and The Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Livelihood opportunities for women and youth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>FCA has developed a business model which is implemented in the Rwamwanja refugee settlement with Congolese refugees and host community students. The project involves supporting graduates for job readiness, to write business plans, starting their own businesses and linking them to the private sector for employment within for instance tailoring, blacksmith welding, sandal-making, construction, hotel management and motorcycle maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2020 and 2021, FCA targeted young women and men out of-school and provided them with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kirkonulkomaanapu.fi\/en\/latest-news\/articles\/ugandan-youths-and-refugees-trained-in-business-and-vocational-skills\/\">vocational skills training to increase their employment or self-employment opportunities<\/a>. We encouraged girls to train in male-dominated trades and baby care facilities were also set up to support female students with babies in Kyaka and Rwamanja. With support from FCA, 1,702 people started a smallholder business over the past two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FCA also supports&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kirkonulkomaanapu.fi\/en\/latest-news\/articles\/vocational-training-graduates-from-kampalas-notorious-slum-determined-to-become-role-models-for-youth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">a skills training centre in Katwe<\/a>, a slum area in the capital Kampala that has a reputation associated with criminality, prostitution and recruitment by extremist groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FCA contributed to women\u2019s social and economic empowerment through income generating activities, Village Savings and Loan Associations and entrepreneurship skills development. Savings and Loans Associations helped women to finance business start-ups and enterprise development at community level which increased their self-employment opportunities and income levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2021, Women\u2019s Bank savings groups reached 8,594 women through training sessions and savings groups and loans granted by the groups to female entrepreneurs in Mityana, Kamwenge, Wakiso and Yumbe districts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"block-latest-articles-from-category full-width id-block\">\n\t<div class=\"container-lg\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"row articles\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col col-12 col-md-4\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"article-card article-card__default\">\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kirkonulkomaanapu.fi\/en\/ajankohtaista\/blogi\/no-child-should-be-neglected-because-of-a-disability\/\">\n\t\t<div class=\"article-thumbnail\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kirkonulkomaanapu.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Michael-Bukenya-Mubende-7-2-480x320.png\" alt=\"No child should be neglected because of a disability\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"480\" height=\"320\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/a>\n\n\t<div class=\"article-meta\">\n\t\t<span>Blog<\/span><span>10.3.2026<\/span>\t<\/div>\n\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kirkonulkomaanapu.fi\/en\/ajankohtaista\/blogi\/no-child-should-be-neglected-because-of-a-disability\/\"><h3 class=\"article-title\">No child should be neglected because of a disability<\/h3><\/a>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col col-12 col-md-4\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"article-card article-card__default\">\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kirkonulkomaanapu.fi\/en\/latest-news\/articles\/small-miracles-grow-in-the-shade-of-mango-trees\/\">\n\t\t<div class=\"article-thumbnail\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kirkonulkomaanapu.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Michael-Bukenya-Mubende-11-480x320.png\" alt=\"Small miracles grow in the shade of mango trees\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"480\" height=\"320\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/a>\n\n\t<div class=\"article-meta\">\n\t\t<span>Article<\/span><span>9.3.2026<\/span>\t<\/div>\n\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kirkonulkomaanapu.fi\/en\/latest-news\/articles\/small-miracles-grow-in-the-shade-of-mango-trees\/\"><h3 class=\"article-title\">Small miracles grow in the shade of mango trees<\/h3><\/a>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col col-12 col-md-4\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"article-card article-card__default\">\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kirkonulkomaanapu.fi\/en\/latest-news\/articles\/it-was-great-to-see-with-my-own-eyes-how-the-system-works\/\">\n\t\t<div class=\"article-thumbnail\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kirkonulkomaanapu.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/kansanedustajat_hero_2-480x270.jpg\" alt=\"\u201cIt was great to see with my own eyes how the system works\u201d\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/a>\n\n\t<div class=\"article-meta\">\n\t\t<span>Article<\/span><span>6.11.2025<\/span>\t<\/div>\n\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kirkonulkomaanapu.fi\/en\/latest-news\/articles\/it-was-great-to-see-with-my-own-eyes-how-the-system-works\/\"><h3 class=\"article-title\">\u201cIt was great to see with my own eyes how the system works\u201d<\/h3><\/a>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t<\/div>\t\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Uganda Uganda hosts more refugees than any other country in Africa.
