Our strategy for the clinic 2009-2013 with updates

Our strategy for 2009-2013 to continue to serve the needs of our community

To ensure the affordable medical treatment from good and friendly staff for which Hope Clinic Lukuli is recognised and relied upon in the community can continue, our strategy includes:

1. Continue the strong relationship with the community, Makindye Division, Kampala City Council and the Ministry of Health and their funding partners;

2. Strengthen the internal management and reporting systems of the clinic beyond the already established medical case records and patient care;

3. Maintain financial self-sufficiency for the out-patients, maternity and admissions services and support integration of these general health services with the free-to-client services;

4. Develop new and expanded grantee and programme relationships with Government, companies, private donators and international granting bodies to expand the free to client services as part of Uganda’s national health priorities;

5. Improve reporting of our achievements and model for a package of care for decision making and for our partners through monitoring and evaluation feedback and timely grant reporting that recognises their support.

Hope Clinic Lukuli is a registered NGO in Uganda and maintains its links to charities registered in the UK through which it can receive donations with Gift Aid.

None of the founders or trustees of the NGO receive any fee or income from the clinic or NGO and the clinic premises constructed in 2005 are owned by the NGO. Hope Clinic Lukuli is registered as a charity with the Uganda tax authorities. The clinic operates from land donated in a 25 year lease to 2030 and so has few overhead costs

PEPFAR and The Global Fund approaches to Civil Society TA

Ambassador Goosby, speaking at the April 2011 Civil Society Hearing of the United Nations in New York, referred to the civil society and community implementers being ‘more effective’ and ‘better placed’ for the delivery of services. As the Global AIDS Coordinator of the US Government PEPFAR he had taken on the programme that had run since 2005 called the New Partners Initiative. The New Partners Initiative (NPI) made its first awards in 2006 to 23 prime recipients. The second round (mid 2008) and third round of awards (early 2009) brought the number of prime recipients to 53 organisations. Each received three year awards with annual values of US$500,000 to US$1 million. Many of the prime organisations reflected the original announcement by President Bush on WAD December 1, 2005: “ This new initiative will establish a competitive grants process for new partners, including faith- and community-based organizations, with the desire and ability to help implement PEPFAR, but who have li

#AIDS2011 Thirty years of HIV in Uganda

Hope Clinic Lukuli and more importantly the members of the community we serve have spent an enjoyable day with a reporter from Reuters looking at Uganda's experiences over the past 30 years. The United Nations General Assembly are holding a High Level Meeting in New York in the coming week. Reuters want to hear from the communities about how the reality of HIV has changed. Policy - Partnerships - People The success story for Uganda, and also for other countries but at a different pace, has been to develop the policy framework, form the partnerships, and most recently to think about the HIV and AIDS-related needs of the people. The policy framework and specifically the Government of Uganda's acknowledgement of the risk to the population of HIV led to openness, national awareness campaigns and the 'Zero grazing' guidance. That willingness in the late 80s and early 90s of the government to inform its populous was a key start. Consider the countries which only began t

Women and Hope Clinic Lukuli

Joyce Bbosa is an experienced midwife who described at her retirement how she has delivered the village with her own two hands. Joyce, then in her 50s, was working in a two room structure helping children with fevers – whether malaria or not – and helping scared young mothers living in Kampala away from their family support, at home in the village. Hope Clinic Lukuli grew from these two rooms by the work of a women-led committee of non-medics. Small actions by the people living in Lukuli village on the edge of Kampala brought child immunisation to the families; help with oral rehydration to manage the fevers; and access to HIV testing for the pregnant mothers and others to help reduce new infections. www.hcluganda.org Hope Clinic Lukuli has continued since 2000, and despite Joyce’s retirement in 2004, to become a new facility offering family planning and maternal health, admissions for deliveries, a laboratory and out-patients department. What makes it unusual is that the co
