  • OFFICE of the PRIME MINISTER MINISTRY for KARAMOJA AFFAIRS Karamoja Integrated Development Plan 2 (KIDP 2) FOREWORD
    OFFICE OF THE PRIME MINISTER MINISTRY FOR KARAMOJA AFFAIRS Karamoja Integrated Development Plan 2 (KIDP 2) 2015 – 2020 FOREWORD The Karamoja Integrated Development Plan (KIDP 2) is a deliberate strategy by Government to enhance coordination efforts in addressing development gaps after peace was restored in KIDP 2 Karamoja. This will be achieved through the intensification of development interventions in the sub-region; specifically, in the provision of potable water and water for production, enhancing the production of sufficient food for households and incomes, improving access to quality health and education services, improving livestock production and productivity, markets, promoting and augmenting the mineral sector, infrastructure development, and harnessing the tourism potential in the sub-region. In the past Karamoja was too insecure for development interventions to take place, however the successful voluntary disarmament programme enforced by Government is gradually changing the region and has drastically improved security. Peace is now being enjoyed in all parts of Karamoja making it a better place to live in and develop. The improved security is a result of the concerted efforts of my office in collaboration with security forces, especially the Ministry of Defence, Ministry of Internal Affairs, Ministry of Justice and Constitutional Affairs. This has been in collaboration and partnership with development partners and civil society actors who successfully engaged in the mobilisation and sensitization of the communities. Most of the people in Karamoja are now in favour of peace building, food production, and improved cattle keeping among other interventions. Indeed, the conflict analysis pattern in the region has changed considerably for the better.

    2015 Annual Report Building Prosperity Throughout Africa Beating the drums in celebration Drums hold a special place in the history and culture of Africa and are a significant part of our celebrations. That is why we chose the drum as the symbol of this year’s Annual Report. In the pages that follow you will read about how we commissioned new plants across Africa, creating jobs and prosperity for thousands of Africans, while at the same time making high-quality cement more affordable and accessible to millions. Despite strong economic headwinds across Africa we increased revenues and profitability, improved our operational management and strengthened our corporate governance. Therefore, we believe it is appropriate for us to beat the drums in celebration of the milestones we achieved during the year.
