This circular from the Uganda Ministry of Education and Sports (MoES) describes a new mandatory requirement under the "National Strategy and Action Plan on Violence Against Children in Schools (VACiS), the Reporting, Tracking, Referral and Response (RTRR) Guidelines on Violence Against Children in Schools, and the Alternative to Corporal Punishment Guidelines" to use the Journey's handbooks developed by RTI under the USAID/LARA program in primary schools.
