Advocacy for Enacting of the Sexual Offences Bill and popularizing the National Education Sexuality Framework in Uganda

Joy for Children Uganda (JFCU) is working with Uganda Parliamentary Forum for Children (UPFC) and Uganda Women Parliamentary Association (UWOPA) to review the Sexual Offences Bill. The Bill provides positive provisions towards addressing sexual violence, including protecting sexual assault survivors’ rights during criminal proceedings and criminalizing sexual harassment by people in positions of authority.
