Duration: 2 days
Ngalo Buwereza Organization (NBO) will host its first National Workshop in Kampala Kolping Hotel from February 5-7, 2023, bringing together 242 recruited members. Alongside NBO, WIEGO and HomeNet Africa will support the facilitation of the workshop aiming to kick off the initial discussion on the draft constitution and for its member to have a shared understanding of why they are organizing under a national umbrella. At the same time, participants will also discuss an agreement on decentralized organization building, review the most appropriate structures for it, and agree to a process for further membership engagement on the constitution as the most critical basis of the new organization.
It is expected that the workshop participants and attending members will leave with a deeper understanding and a commitment to establishing a national umbrella organization with a clear sense of purpose and ownership. Further discussions on the draft constitution are expected to take place, as well as a comprehensive consultation on the draft constitution with the membership. The goal is to further develop the Ngalo Buwereza Organization as an independent organization for home-based workers and to introduce it to potential partners and allies.
