UNDP has had a long presence in Uganda. For most of this time, national development priorities guided programme interventions. In the previous and ongoing country programmes, UNDP supported development needs identified in the PEAP and in post-conflict recovery and reconstruction efforts of the government. Several factors influenced UNDP positioning in responding to the development priorities. Uganda has a large donor presence, and UNDP plays a relatively small role in terms of the financial and technical resources contributed towards achieving development results. UNDP also has the responsibility to ensure it meets specific organizational mandates, using its own core funds to address issues critical to furthering human development; issues that the government or donors may prioritize differently. This chapter analyses how UNDP positioned itself vis-à-vis responding to Uganda’s development challenges.
