Other concerns included land degradation due to overgrazing, deforestation, and unsustainable farming practices; unequal access to resources; weak governance and institutional frameworks; limited human resources; poorly enforced water permits; climate change; social and political factors; poverty and inequality; and rapid population growth.

UWEWK 2025: A Hub for Advocacy, Policy, and Knowledge Sharing: UWEWK has become a flagship platform for advocacy, policy influence, and knowledge sharing, bringing together government leaders, cultural institutions, academia, and development partners. This year’s theme, “Water and Environment Resources for Enhanced Resilience and Improved Incomes and Livelihoods,” aims to generate practical solutions for Uganda’s environmental challenges.

The Project Implementation Manual (PIM) provides the operational framework guiding the execution of the Integrated Forests and Protected Areas for Climate-Driven Development (IFPA-CD) Project in Uganda. It outlines institutional arrangements, implementation procedures, financial management, procurement, monitoring and evaluation, and safeguards compliance. The PIM translates the Project Appraisal Document and Financing Agreement into practical steps for executing entities, ensuring consistency, accountability, and efficiency in achieving project objectives related to forest conservation, climate resilience, and sustainable livelihoods.
