摘要

本文探讨功能性成人扫盲(FAL)在乌干达北部Apac地区妇女社区参与中发挥或未能发挥的作用。这篇文章以弗莱雷的识字理论和卡比尔的代理理论为基础,这两种理论认为,尽责的因素使被边缘化的不识字的人认识到世界的现实,并认识到它是如何阻碍他们的发展的。本文所依据的研究采用定性的案例研究设计,对45名参与者通过参与社区活动和项目而获得的FAL知识和技能所带来的生活变化进行了研究。主要调查结果显示,妇女培训有助于妇女在社区会议和决策过程中有发言权,并有助于选举或任命妇女担任不同的领导职务。文章的结论是,鉴于FAL的重要性,它需要得到性别、劳动和社会发展部(MoGLSD)以及其他地方和国际利益相关者的大力和持续的支持,该部负责协调乌干达的项目。鉴于FAL创造意识并改变妇女的生活以参与其社区,公民社会组织(cso)和发展伙伴应该确保为社区发展目的针对妇女建立良好的培训计划。

Women’s Functional Adult Literacy and Access to Community Participation in APAC District, Northern Uganda
This article explores how Functional Adult Literacy (FAL) plays or fails to play a role in women’s community participation in Apac district, Northern Uganda. The article was underpinned by Freire’s literacy and Kabeer’s agency theories, which argue that the element of conscientisation enables the marginalised non-literates realise the reality of the world and recognise how it impedes their development. The research on which this article is based employed qualitative case study design to the life changes of 45 participants resulting from their acquired FAL knowledge and skills to participate in community activities and projects. The major findings revealed that FAL training contributes to women having a voice in community meetings and decision-making process and elected or appointed in different leadership positions. The article concludes that given its critical importance, FAL needs to be strongly and consistently supported by the Ministry of Gender, Labour and Social Development (MoGLSD) which coordinates the programme in Uganda as well as other local and international stakeholders. Given that FAL creates consciousness and transforms women’s lives to participate within their communities, Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) and development partners should ensure a well-built training programme targeting women for community development purposes.
