About the Assignment
Close to 25 years now, FRA has established itself as a champion advocating for the right to adequate food for all in Uganda and beyond. In this regard, FRA has fostered meaningful partnerships and driving impactful initiatives. However, the dynamic landscape of the development sector, coupled with the evolving context around food and nutrition as a development and human rights issue FRA sells, demands a strategic re-evaluation of the organization’s trajectory. To proactively address this, FRA is convening a two-day thought process meeting. This will bring together its founders, Board of Directors, management, and key stakeholders operating in the environment where FRA trades. The thought process meeting aims at taking stock of FRA’s journey from her philosophical point of view, the current operation, and projecting it into the future. It is designed for participating stakeholders to collectively chart a new course for the organization’s future growth and sustainability. This thought process meeting will facilitate a thorough self-assessment, allowing FRA to rediscover its strengths, confront its weaknesses, and capitalize on emerging opportunities. By doing so, the organization will emerge revitalized, equipped with a refreshed vision and a robust strategy to inform its future programs, remain relevant and competitive in the fast-changing context.
