Susmita Barua said… Hi Kato. Thanks for invite to join your organization. Quickly I like you to explore whether the www.Kiva.org microlending for self or coop employment is active in Uganda and see whether you can invite them or start a prototype of their model in your community.
Heifer International is another non-profit that may be good to work with or learn from. Plus encourage any woman member of your network join www.worldpulse.com to network with other women in the field. Hope that helps for now. All the best. Peace

"Vasudev kutukbkam" entire world is a family, this was a teaching of our indian culture and traditional.
we created countries, boundaries,religions,cast,race for a genuine reason or a false reasons for any reason.but this the time to realize that we are one and we naturally interconnected with each other ,which we can just realize by watching inhale and exhale of breaths the source is same ,without any discrimination,religion, boundaries, equally for all living life of universe .When we understand this simple thing then we must understand how our and other's life is equally important, valuable ,respectable .we should follow the nature's rule ,non violence .peace ,god has given us a human life not for destruction but for look after the wellbeing of all living life.
