The WIE project in Uganda is part of a global Women's ICT Enterprises Project, which is coordinated by Dr. Richard Heeks of the University of Manchester. Subsequently, WOUGNET has produced a localized WIE Guide and CD. The objective is to harness ICTs for socio-economic development. WIEs can provide women with immediate benefits such as jobs, income, skills empowerment etc. The WIE guide and CD are a tool to enable understanding of how this happens. Both are available at the WOUGNET Secretariat. The guide at a cost of 7,000/= is in three languages: English, Luganda and Luo. The CD, at a cost of 10,000/= contains the WIE workshop report and photos, keynote speech by Dr. Margaret Kigozi - Executive Director of Uganda Investment Authority (UIA), the localized support guides and radio scripts in English, Luganda and Luo, as well as free software. The WIE project in Uganda is supported by the Institute for Development Policy and Management at the University of Manchester with funding from the UK Department for International Development (DFID).
