    Uganda Christian University’s (UCU) school of social sciences signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Promise International, an organization based in Montgomery, Alabama, that focuses on assisting children with special needs in Uganda. The signing ceremony took place at the Principal’s Hall and was presided over by the Vice Chancellor, Aaron Mushengyezi.

    During the event, Daniel Tulibagenyi, the founder of Promise International, was hosted by the Vice Chancellor. The MOU is a formal agreement between the two entities to collaborate and work together towards a common goal of improving the lives of children with special needs in Uganda.

    The MOU signing ceremony marks an important step towards providing better services to children with special needs in Uganda. The partnership between UCU’s school of social sciences and Promise International will likely lead to the improvement of community engagement, research initiatives, and projects aimed at improving the quality of life of children with special needs in Uganda.

    The parties will jointly develop specific scopes of work and cooperation activities, which then will be the subject of a written agreement that contains applicable operational and legal terms.

    Joint curriculum development for children with special needs, joint research project development for children with special needs, joint creation, development, and promotion of innovative educational programs or activities, joint development and implementation of community engagement activities for children with special needs, joint organization of conferences and or workshops for children with special needs: 

    Dr. Omona David, the Dean of the School of Social Sciences, said that this is going to provide both students and staff members with better academic and research skills.

    “We’ll have a series of trainings, then students will be sent out to have hands-on experience, practice the skills they learn, and make an impact in the community,” Omona said, adding that they’ll be able to advocate for people with special needs in the community. 

    Tulibagenyi said that he found it relevant to work with UCU because of the history of the institution. He appreciated the institution for its moral values and its Christian aspect.
