- W2555199084 abstract "The large number of orphanages in Jinja, Uganda has promoted the widespread institutionalisation of children from poor families. Parents are left disempowered and have very few options but to sign over the rights of their children because NGOs in the region have largely prioritised orphanage care over other services. This paper critically analyses the failure of non-state actors in addressing the underlying causes of poverty and thus failing to empower parents to care for their own children. Through in-depth interviews with Ugandan social workers and NGO staff I have identified the main driving factors that push parents towards institutionalising their children. Using a Postcolonial theoretical framework, I have been able to highlight the structural problems enforced by NGO actors that contribute to the further marginalisation of poor Ugandans. Currently, faith-based organisations are at the forefront of promoting orphanage use in Jinja. Whilst their contribution to development cannot be denied, many of their practices are upholding colonial dependencies and values. The findings of this paper conclude that orphanages are disempowering locals because they fail to address the root causes of poverty. (Less)" @default.
