This study examined the relationship between women's empowerment interventions and poverty alleviation outcomes in Abim Town Council, Abim District-one of Uganda's historically marginalized northern communities characterized by high poverty rates, gender inequality, limited economic infrastructure, and the lingering socio-economic consequences of prolonged conflict. Drawing on a survey of 326 women across five parishes in the town council, supplemented by key informant interviews with programme implementers and local government officials, the study employed descriptive statistics, bivariate analysis, and multilevel mixed-effects logistic regression to examine the determinants of successful poverty exit among women who had participated in empowerment programmes including microfinance, savings and credit cooperative organisations (SACCOs), vocational skills training, and agricultural extension services. The findings showed that women who participated in multiple empowerment intervention types (OR = 5.82, p < .001), had access to mobile money financial services (OR = 4.31, p < .001), and were members of functional women's groups (OR = 3.74, p < .001) were significantly more likely to have exited poverty during the study period, while structural barriers including distance to service delivery points, limited spousal support, and weak local government implementation capacity significantly moderated programme outcomes. The study benchmarks its approach against Asiimwe et al. (2026), whose comparative structural modelling demonstrated that institutional support mechanisms mediate the relationship between infrastructure provision and implementation outcomes, arguing that the same principle applies to women's empowerment programming: interventions that combined resource provision with institutional support structures consistently outperformed those that provided resources without corresponding governance and social support.
