Asalo

A development policy analyst with years’ experience in development, policy analysis, gender responsive planning, strategic planning, program management and administration. I am currently working as the Programmes Coordinator at Council of Economic Empowerment of Women of Africa (CEEWA-Uganda) and formerly served as Coordinator, Membership and Women in Coffee program at the African Fine Coffees Association.
I hold a Master of Arts Degree in International Business and a Bachelor’s degree in Social Sciences having majored in Social Administration and Gender studies. I have successfully engaged in implementation of projects; loaded with on and off field experience including design, management, monitoring and evaluation in development, gender, agriculture and related environmental issues that resulted in enhanced access to productive resources leading to improved incomes and livelihoods for women and their families in selected districts in Uganda.
I am incredibly passionate about pro-poor social and environmental issues and have genuine interest in promotion of the right of every women, man and child to enjoy a life of equal opportunity and health. Empowering individuals for example through aiding access to education addresses the persistent constraints and deprivations that prevent many of the world’s deprived from achieving their potential. I am a strong believer in inclusivity for sustainable development.
