Facilitated by the EADEN Secretariat, the workshop aimed to enhance the MOs’ capacity to develop effective advocacy strategies. Through participatory discussions and group analysis, members identified key issues affecting their communities, including high school dropouts, wildlife invasion, malnutrition, climate change, land conflicts, and environmental degradation.

The training concluded with the development of draft advocacy strategies and an action plan to strengthen collective advocacy across the EADEN network reinforcing its commitment to justice, equity, and sustainable development in Eastern Uganda.
