UNDP supports the Government of Uganda to achieve sustainable development, create opportunities for empowerment, protect the environment, minimise natural and man-made disasters, build strategic partnerships, and improve the quality of life for all citizens, as set out in the UNDP Uganda’s Transformative Country Programme and the United Nations Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) for Uganda for the years 2016-2020.
Titled ‘Beyond income, beyond averages, beyond today: Inequalities in human development in the 21st century’, the Human Development Report 2019 measures countries’ socioeconomic progress. In Uganda, the report was launched on December 20, 2019 by David Bahati, the state minister for Planning, at the Golf Course hotel at a function attended by government officials, development partners, heads of UN agencies, civil society, the private sector and the academia.
The Government of Uganda, under the leadership of the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM), has established an e-Platform to undertake nation-wide consultations to inform its second Voluntary National Review (VNR) report on progress towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The report will be presented to the 2020 High-Level Political Forum on SDGs in New York.
