  • Justice for Women

    Access to Justice for women during March the month for women- offering Pro-bono legal services
    Following concerns over the growing number of female inmates on offences mainly linked to domestic violence and financial distress, there’s worsening congestion which is also undermining rehabilitation efforts. CHALAPI-UG has been requested by kasese female advocates to spearhead a campaign offering free legal services to women undergoing trial in the criminal justice system.
    We are humbly and kindly appealing for any financial assistance to facilitate the legal team with fuel to support movements to prisons, courts and also support documentation during this period.
    A cost worth uganda shillings 4.360.000 is estimated. The team is committed offering themselves registering cases and following to conclusion.
    Join us on this yet another important activity. Feel free to share this to friends.
    We can as well make it away to celebrate March through observance fostering greater awareness of woman’s rights that recognizes their contributions a cross sectors and call for actions to dismantle barriers to gender equality.
    Look forward to hearing from you dear brethren.
    Blessings!
    Godfrey
    On behalf of CHALAPI-UG

  • Prison Monitoring

    I arrived in Kampala last night after two week of traversing the North districts of Uganda visiting 56 prisons monitoring the state of human rights focusing on political prisoners during this Uganda’s elections period. I was honored by Defend Defenders a big regional organization operating across African to join a team of 10 monitors that included officials from the Uganda Human rights Commission and Human Rights watch an international organization. Though only official cameras and telephones cleared by government were allowed for our documentary, the conditions are so alarming, prisons receive already tortured inmates with rotting wounds in severe agony. This morning we join the rest of the human rights actors to commemorate the international human rights day and at this dialogue some of the untold stories will be shared to find mitigation measures.
