  • 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.

  • Uganda Humanitarian Update
    UGANDA HUMANITARIAN UPDATE MAY – JUNE 2010 I. HIGHLIGHTS AMID HEAVY RAINS, HUMANITARIAN ACCESS IN PARTS OF KARAMOJA AND TESO HAMPERED BY DETERIORATING ROAD CONDITIONS OVER 1,000 CHOLERA CASES REGISTERED IN KARAMOJA SINCE APRIL 2010 90% OF IDPS IN NORTHERN UGANDA NO LONGER LIVING IN CAMPS, BUT LAND CONFLICTS AND LANDMINES IMPEDING RETURN IN SOME AREAS II. SECURITY AND ACCESS SECURITY The general situation in Karamoja remained fragile, according to the United Nations Department for Safety and Security (UNDSS). Cattle raids, including on protected kraals, particularly affected Moroto and Kotido, with some resulting in fierce clashes between the Uganda People’s Defence Forces and the raiders. In South Karamoja incidents associated with food distributions involved theft of food and non-food items (NFIs), and attacks on food distributors as well as on food recipients. Following three road ambushes in Alerek sub-county of Abim District during the month, UNDSS issued an advisory limiting UN movement along the Abim-Kotido road to between 09.00Hrs and 16.00Hrs with effect from 28 June 2010. Three civilians were killed in one of those ambushes. In northern Uganda, Amuru District officials and partners carried out a joint assessment in the wake of a violent land dispute that occurred in Koli village of Pabbo sub-county on 23 June. Preliminary findings indicated that one person was killed and several others injured in the dispute involving two clans. Some 40 huts were torched and many members of either clan had fled the village. Also of concern in the region during the reporting period were raids by illegally armed Karamojong, particularly in Pader District.
