Promoting rights and accountabilities in African communities

Benon is a married man with four children. In November 2011 at a Plan-supported community meeting he was selected by his village to take on a new community volunteer role to work with Plan’s Promoting Rights and Accountabilities in African Communities (PRAAC) project in Uganda.

Soon after, Benon became one of 42 new community volunteers in Lira district who participated in a five-day training workshop on human rights and law. The workshop covered Uganda’s laws on domestic violence, land, marriage and divorce, succession and inheritance. 

Here Benon tells Plan PRAAC Uganda staff member Julius Batemba his story.
