The Government of Uganda, through the Ministry of Local Government, in collaboration with the Islamic Development Bank (IsDB) and the Lives and Livelihoods Fund (LLF), today visited selected districts as part of a field appraisal mission to assess the achievements of the first phase of the Local Economic Growth Support (LEGS) Project and inform the design of its second phase.
The mission visited Kyejonjo and Katakwi Districts, where partners engaged with district leaders, project beneficiaries, and implementation teams to evaluate the impact of LEGS interventions on local livelihoods and service delivery.
Insights gathered from these visits will guide the planned scale-up of the project from 17 to 55 districts across the country. The partners are also exploring potential funding options for Phase II, with particular focus on climate change adaptation and sustainability to ensure long-term benefits for target communities.
