Abstract
This book provides a national context and state of parenting in
Uganda. It introduces the concept of parenting and helps the
reader to gain an understanding of the attributes and dimensions
that make parenting either successful on one hand or ineffective
on the other. The book further sheds light on the evolving role
of parents in the Ugandan context, identifies selected parenting
interventions and in particular, pays greater attention to the UZAZI
AVSI Parenting Model. UZAZI is positive parenting emphasizing
authoritative nurturing of children. The presentation of the UZAZI AVSI Parenting Model gives the reader an opportunity to
understand the effectiveness of the model based on its evaluation
using rigorous scientific methods. The book concludes by making
recommendations to improve research, policy and programming in
the field of parenting within the context of families and children.
