Notes on Indicators
1
Education
For Primary school gross enrolment (for all children living in the slum areas)
Number of slum children enrolled in primary schools, regardless of age expressed as a percentage of the total
number of slum children of official primary school age.
Secondary school gross enrolment for slum children
Number of slum children enrolled in secondary schools, regardless of age expressed as a percentage of the total
number of slum children of official secondary school age.
In youth literacy rates we look at ages between 15 and 24, expressed as a percentage of the total population in that
age group
2
Diarrhea management
Diarrhoea occurs when more than 3 loose stools are passed by a child in a 24 hour period. Acceptably managed
means the child received increased fluids (preferably ORT or recommended home fluid) during the disease and
while recovering.
Diarrhea in children is very common in the slum areas because of the poor domestic and environmental hygiene
methods used.
3
Nutrition
Weight less than 2500 grams at birth for a child is regarded as under weight. Demographic and Health Surveys
(DHS), Multiple Indicators Cluster Surveys(MICS), Other national household surveys and data from routine
reporting systems.
Under weight for a child may be Moderate or Severe: below minus two standard deviation from median weight for
age of reference population.
Severe: below minus three standard deviation from median weight for age of reference population.
Wasting- Moderate and severe: below minus two standard deviation from median weight for height of reference
population.
Stunting- Moderate and severe: below minus two standard deviation from median height for age of reference
population
4
Immunization
Government Funding of Vaccines: Percentage of vaccines that are routinely administered in a country to protect
children and are financed by the Ugandan government.
EPI- Expanded Programme on Immunisation: The Immunizations Programme in Uganda includes that against;
Tuberculosis (TB), Diphtheria, Pertusis (Whooping cough),Tetenus (DPT), Polio, Measles, as well as vaccines for
pregnant mothers to protect babies against tetanus, other vaccines , e.g hepatitis B (HepB), haemophilus influenza
type b (hib) or yellow fever, may be included in the immunization programme.
Immunisation programmes for infants or mothers can be measured by the percentages infants or mothers who
received a particular vaccine against a certain disease at a specified age, time in place.
5
Water
“ Water is life‟ People‟s accessibility to a clean water source considers the time one takes to reach a water source. 30
minutes has been considered as adequate time for one to reach a water source to at least collect enough water per
person per day from a potable source. Potable source means a tap, protected well, or other protected water source.
Measure: Percent of households who have year round accessibility to clean tap water in a slum area source as
compared to the total number of people in the community..
6
Violence Against Women in the slum areas:
Violence Against Women (VAW) in the slum areas is as old as the slums themselves. In spite of the growing
interest in fighting this social evil, no explicit measure is in place or sight to completely curb it out of existence
“There is no week that passes without hearing a story where a woman has been battered or assaulted in some way
around” (A local councilor II, Wabigalo parish)
What is Domestic Violence?
There are two key words to consider here; domestic and violence. Simply looked at, „Domestic‟ refers to anything,
related to a home or family, „Violence”, on the other hand, is any force, passion or intensity used with intention to
cause violation, destruction , hurt or pain. This then makes it clear that Domestic violence refers to force, passion or
intensity intended to hurt destruct, pain or violate someone‟s rights in a home or family setting.
7
Social sustainability
Social sustainability is defined as the capacity within a community to sustain the long-term viability and impact of
development processes. This capacity is focused on how conditions for social sustainability are created through the
character functioning, resource mobilization and networking skills of community organizations, support groups etc..
“SAP‟s niche to empower community support groups will go a long way in facilitating development processes while
engaging the government and other relevant authorities. In the end, this will enhance sustainability.”
Measure: Number of community programs that have successfully been sustained after the programs ended against
the total number of programs in a specific community in a given period.
8
Community participation
Community participation is when people in an area with a common goal to achieve a development objective in
areas such as hygiene, education, moral stability, etc work together to accomplish that specific goal.
Community Organization refers to mobilization of people in an area with a common goal to achieve development
objectives
Slum Aid Project invested a lot of effort and time in what has come to be known as Community support group
Organization. This is a relatively new concept in Community Development. In terms of definition, Community
Organization refers to mobilization of people in an area with a common goal to achieve development in areas such
as hygiene, education and moral stability.
Measure: Percentage number of people participating in community work against the total population of adults in a
specific community.
ommunity Organization refers to mobilization of
9
Poorest house holds.
Poorest households means those households identified to be the most socially and/or economically disadvantaged
within a community.
Measure: Number of Households identified as to be the most socially and/or economically disadvantaged within a
community against the total number of households in the community.
House hold resilience
10
HIV/AIDS
Estimated HIV/Prevelance rate- Percentage of adults (aged 15-49) living with HIV/AIDS in a specific slum area.
Estimated number of people (all ages) living with HIV- Estimated number of people living with HIV/AIDS in a
specific slum area.
Estimated number of women living with HIV/AIDS- Estimated number of women living with HIV/AIDS in a
specific slum area.
HIV Prevalence among young men and women: Percentage of young men and women living with HIV/AIDS per
slum area.
Comprehensive Knowledge of HIV- Percentage of People (Men and women) and young men or young women
(15-24) who correctly identify the two major ways of preventing the sexual transmission of HIV (Using Condom
and limiting sex to one faithful partner). Who also reject the two major misconceptions about HIV transmission and
know that a healthy looking person can be HIV-infected.
Condom Use- Percentage of People (Men and women) and young men or young women (15-24) who say they used
a condomthe last time they had sex with a non-marital, non cohabiting partner during the last 12 months.
Children orphaned by AIDS- Estimated number of children (aged 0-17) who have lost one or both parents during
the last 12 months.
Orphaned School attendance: Percentage of children (10-14) who have lost both biological parents and who are
currently attending school as a percentage of non- orphaned children of the same age living with at least one parent
and who are attending school.
Drug Abuse
Understanding what drugs are is fundamental to understanding their potential abuse. A psychoactive substance is
something that people take to change the way they feel, think or behave. Some of these substances are called drugs,
and others, like alcohol and tobacco, are considered dangerous but are not called drugs. The term drugs also covers a
number of substances that must be used under medical supervision to treat illnesses.
For our purposes then, we will talk about drugs as those man-made or naturally occurring substances used without
medical supervision basically to change the way a person feels, thinks or behaves so that they "can have fun."
While it is difficult to give an accurate picture of the extent of drug abuse among youth because of the severe lack of
information, we can look at smaller samples of young people in slum areas for some indication of the direction
youth culture is taking.
Finally, drug abuse damages the ability of people to act as free and conscious beings, capable of taking action to
fulfill their needs. How free drug abusers are when they have no control over their actions or reactions is debatable.
What is unarguable is that by giving in to bio-chemical processes that are deviant, a drug abuser loses what makes
humans admirable and unique.
It is believed that many of the youths in the slum areas are using drugs which has led to increased crime rates in the
slum areas.
Measure: Percentage of youths on drugs as compared to the total number of the youths in the slum areas.
