| dc.description.abstract | This study assessed resource mobilization within the Malaria-Free Uganda Project. The study was a cross-sectional research design along with a qualitative research approach. The study targeted a sample of 75 respondents from a total of 95 staff in the National Malaria Control Division. Data used was obtained from staff from departments of Private sector Co-ordination, Integrated case Management & Vector Control, Programs Management, M&E, and Social Behavioural change communication using an interview guide. Data was analysed using NVIVO software and was interpreted based on the themes that were developed from the key narratives. The study found that resource mobilization in MFUP was carried out in four ways, namely: partnership building, fundraising campaigns, writing grants, and volunteer engagement. The major challenges associated with resource mobilization are: inadequate accountability and mismanagement, lack of commitment, poor philanthropic culture, perception, and attitude. The core strategies proposed for improving resource mobilization were inclined to promote accountability, adoption of technology, and competence enhancement. The study concludes that MFUP relies on four channels to mobilize resources, which include: partnering, fundraising, proposal writing for grants, and volunteering. Although the most effective ones are fundraising and volunteer engagement. The challenges of resource mobilization are enormous, as accountability, poor philanthropic culture, commitment, attitude, and divergence of interest are predominant. MFUP should therefore undertake appropriate strategies to revamp resource mobilization issues. This study recommends diversification of sources of resources, technology adoption, monitoring and evaluation, and improved accountability to enhance resource mobilization. | |
