Tina Musuya

Tina is the Executive Director at CEDOVIP. She holds an M.A. in sociology from Makerere University in Uganda. Under her guidance, CEDOVIP won the 2010 UNAIDS Red Ribbon Award for innovative work in preventing violence against women and HIV. She successfully piloted the SASA! programing in Kampala, which was the site of the ground-breaking SASA! study that brought to light evidence that preventing violence against women through social norm change is possible. Ms. Musuya has more than 11 years of experience working with communities, police, civil society and policy makers to prevent violence against women (VAW). She helped draft, and successfully campaigned for, passage of the Domestic Violence Act in Uganda. Her work and expertise has exposed her to networks of VAW prevention programming work in the eastern and central African region and to the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. Ms. Musuya is a Member of the Independent Advisory Board for What Works to Prevent Violence initiative, the UK Department for International Development’s flagship research and innovation program.
