A core part of the advocacy work involves educating community members about the laws and policies that safeguard women and children. Ziingo organizes local forums, dialogues, and community sensitization events to inform people about their rights and the importance of reporting abuse or neglect. These efforts are especially important in areas where limited access to information and services can leave women and children vulnerable to exploitation, domestic violence, and harmful traditional practices.

In addition to raising awareness, the Advocacy Programme supports community leaders, teachers, and local authorities with training to better respond to cases of abuse or discrimination. By building capacity at the village level, Ziingo ensures that there are trusted and knowledgeable individuals available to take action when rights are violated. This approach not only creates safer environments for women and children but also empowers communities to be agents of their own change.

Ultimately, Ziingo’s Advocacy Programme is about creating lasting impact through education, dialogue, and community empowerment. In the Bugisu subregion, where rural life often presents unique challenges, the program serves as a beacon of hope and transformation. By addressing systemic barriers and fostering a sense of shared responsibility, Ziingo helps villages become safer, more inclusive, and supportive spaces for all, especially the most vulnerable.
