President Museveni launching the Uganda Vision 2040
The Uganda Vision 2040 and the National Development Plans provide the principal instruments and overarching framework for Development Partners’ support to Uganda. In that regard, the LDPG is committed to increase local ownership and aligning development assistance around Uganda’s development strategies; reduce transaction costs and manage for results; harmonize practices and promote broad, dynamic partnerships to avoid fragmentation; and promote transparency, predictability and mutual accountability to achieve the national development goals.
Sam Kutesa, as President of the General Assembly, played an important role in the adoption of Agenda 2030
Uganda played an active part in the process that culminated in the adoption of the Agenda 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which will guide global and national development in the years to come. Sustainable development is an integral part of national planning and development frameworks in Uganda. Several policies, legal, and institutional frameworks are in place to facilitate sustainable development through economic growth, social inclusion, and environmental protection.
Since the adoption of the Agenda 2030 and Uganda’s second National Development Plan (NDPII) in 2015, the country has made great headway in setting up and operationalizing structures for effective coordination of the implementation of the SDGs through partnerships, stronger institutions and targeted resource mobilization; the goals and targets have been aligned to national and sector plans to monitor and track the achievement of the SDGs as the country moves towards the goals and objectives in the national development framework.
