Violence against children is a pervasive problem in Uganda, as in many countries in the world. A vast majority of children experience violence on a regular basis from adults they know in their community, schools or at home. In response, Raising Voices launched a specific program in Uganda to prevent violence against children. This response is organised into three programs:

National Dialogue
Raising Voices will conduct research to learn about the nature and the extent of the problem, and subsequently launch a media campaign informed by the key findings.

Good School Program
Raising Voices will work with schools and other stakeholders involved in education delivery system to create examples and experience of Good Schools. It involves developing and sharing tools that will enable schools to replicate this model.

Activism
Raising Voices will work with a wide range of stakeholders with a view to developing strategic collaborations leading to local action to prevent violence against children.

Communication Materials
These communication materials are designed to create dialogue and discussion about violence against children.
