Uganda SLM PER

The Government of Uganda has expressed a strong interest in moving toward a country programmatic approach for sustainable land management, in order to scale-up SLM in a more coordinated and effective manner. As part of this process, a Country SLM Investment Framework (CSIF) is being designed to respond to the country’s development priorities, align donors, and set Uganda on a path toward formulating comprehensive SLM Country Programs. This CSIF includes an SLM public expenditure review (PER).

Francis Vorhies has been part of a team organised by the World Bank to undertake the SLM PER. The overall objective of this analytical work was to contribute to the development of a common national strategy for the efficient and effective scale-up of SLM interventions. The review provided important input into the design and preparation of the planned ENR SWAp, the Ugandan SLM country program, and the SLM investment framework.
