A cultural change within our society is required to facilitate reform in the disability sector. This
Involves increasing awareness, educating widely and shifting attitudes to move towards genuine Community inclusion. Disability expectations: Investing in a better life, a stronger Uganda
Briefly traces the history of disability Entitlement, services and policy, and asks what needs to change if the remnants are to make a meaningful difference.
In a Uganda population of a little over 22 million people, about 4 million, or 20%, report as having HIV/AIDS and disability resulting from a health condition. Nearly 1.3million people have a “profound or severe disability”. To put this into perspective:
• Every 7 hours, Ugandan child is diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder
• Every 15 hours, a child is born with cerebral palsy.
Almost one in two people with HIV/AIDS and disability in Uganda live-in or near poverty (68%). This is more than 2.5 times the rate of poverty experienced in the general population and more than doubles the OECD average of 22%. The OECD average for relative poverty risk is approximately 1.6, which indicates that people with a disability tend to have a poverty risk about 1.6 times higher than people without a disability. Uganda is by far the worst performer on this indicator, ranking 27th out of 27 OECD countries, with a relative poverty risk of 2.7. Despite enabling Commonwealth and state legislation dating back over 20 years, and a series of across jurisdictional agreements to support people with a disability, the current disability support system is under performing and requires an overhaul. This paper explores the history and nature of disability and proposes a series of principles and recommendations which may help frame the implementation agenda for the Productivity Commission’s proposals.
2014 was an exciting year for home for disables and orphans. We ensured that over
90 children received their 12 basic rights, increased the number of orphanages
supported from 8 to 16, continued collaborating with our partners on the ground in
Uganda(and formed several new partnerships) and supported 37 additional children
as they began their studies in higher education.
Thanks to our incredible donors and partners, we are continuing to empower the
most vulnerable children in the world to reach their full potential.
Millions of people have been lifted out of extreme poverty in the last 15 years, and
we are a part of making poverty history! I’m sorry the media doesn’t do a better
job of telling us about the amazing transformation that is happening in the world,
but the truth is we have less war, less poverty, more clean water and more support
for the poor than ever before in history. It’s pretty exciting stuff and we have
learned that when we focus on a goal and measure progress, we really can make a
significant difference.
That’s why what we do at home for disabilities and orphans Foundation is so powerful.
Together, we are bringing life-changing care to the world’s orphans. We focus
on strengthening existing institutions and giving purposeful employment to local
people in need of work. We transform institutional orphanages into homes, train
displaced women to become cherished mothers and fund scholarships for education.
Our goal is to have each orphan become a healthy, happy, income-producing
person—and break out of the cycle of poverty. And, it’s working!

home for disability and orphans is a proven three-phase
method that raises the standards and expectations
of existing disability and orphanages. We start by selecting
disables and orphanages with a genuine commitment to
orphans and their education. Next, we help
local disables and orphanages help themselves by providing
incremental funding to cover gaps in the
quality of care. This involves working hand-in-hand with the orphanages during an incubation
phase to provide paired funding, training and capacity building. We have codified measurement
standards based on the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child and actively
work with orphanages to implement improvements. Once an orphanage maintains 90%+ goal
achievement, they become a Miracle Foundation partner and can count on ongoing support.
Using this approach helps any struggling orphanage measure success, guard against corruption
and report real, tangible, lifesaving results.
