Delta has started 2012 with a new 3 year DFID-funded contract in Uganda to establish a knowledge management and communication centre for HIV/AIDS. We are working alongside communications specialists Scriptoria, and the International HIV/AIDS Alliance who have a permanent presence here in Uganda.
The Uganda Knowledge Management and Communications Centre (KMCC) will be an innovative multi-disciplinary hub that will collate, synthesise, analyse and communicate research and other knowledge to inform evidence-based policy and practice and thereby contribute to reduced annual HIV infections in the country.
The KMCC will be a Uganda led and Uganda owned initiative with major contributions from all key HIV/AIDS stakeholder groups in the country. The KMCC is one of four components of the DFID funded HIV/AIDS Prevention Programme for the Government of Uganda.
Business manager Hannah Swan is now based in Kampala and will be assisting in the coordination of the project, alongside Delta director Mike Thomson who will be offering project management support.
In addition to this assignment Delta is looking to grow it’s network of partners and associates in Uganda. We’re actively looking for new and interesting oppurtunities and like-minded people who would like to work with us in this area. Please feel contact hannah@deltapartnership.com if you would like to become involved in our work in Uganda, or if you have any oppurtunities you would like to discuss.
