Mission: To serve the community through coordinated delivery of services which focus on national and local priorities in order to promote sustainable social and economic development of the District. Theme: Improving service delivery for better standards of living for the communities iii IBANDA DISTRICT LOCAL GOVERNMENT 5 YEAR DEVELOPMENT PLAN II 2015/16-2019/20 FOREWORD Article 190 of the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda, (1995) and Section 35 of the Local government Act, (CAP 243) mandates the District Local Government Councils, as District Planning Authorities, to prepare and approve District Development Plans. With this mandate Council prepared the 2015/2016-2019/2020 Development plan which was later approved on 14th April 2015. The Plan incorporates the Stakeholder views that arose from various consultative fora including the budget conference of 3rd December 2014 that formed the basis for priority identification. The District Council, District Executive Committee, Standing committees of Council and the Technical Planning Committee also discussed the Development Plan. The focus of the plan is on poverty reduction and promotion of household incomes in line with the District Vision of “A Broad based Educated and Modernized Society by 2040” which rhymes with the National Vision 2040 of “ having a transformed Ugandan Society from a Peasant to a Modern and Prosperous Country within 30 Years”, and our Mission “To serve the community through coordinated delivery of services which focus on national and local priorities in order to promote sustainable social and economic development of the District‟‟. The medium term priorities of Council focus on improved road infrastructure, promotion of agricultural production, School construction to boost school enrolment and retention, provision of safe water, improved road/communication infrastructure, and improvement of health infrastructure. The above interventions will result into increased safe water coverage, agricultural production and food security, improved accessibility and health service delivery among others. The District will endeavor to ensure continued operation and maintenance of existing investments/facilities. Funding for operational and maintenance for all projects will be ensured and all newly completed projects will be commissioned. It‟s my call to all stakeholders to cooperate with the District leadership to ensure better and sustainable service delivery to our people as we work towards modernization and prosperity for all. All this we do for God and our Country MELCHIADIS KAZWENGYE DISTRICT CHAIRPERSON, IBANDA iv IBANDA DISTRICT LOCAL GOVERNMENT 5 YEAR DEVELOPMENT PLAN II 2015/16-2019/20 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT This second five year development plan has been prepared in a participatory manner that emphasizes stakeholder involvement and incorporates community priorities from Lower local governments. I wish to extend my sincere thanks to the members of the District council, District Executive Committee and Standing Committees, members of the District Technical Planning Committee, the Budget Desk, Implementing Partners, the Private Sector, NGOs and CBOs as well as community members for their invaluable input. The District Planning Unit is commended for the job well done as regards coordination and compilation of this Development Plan and quality assurance. The implementation of the interventions in this plan demands for a lot of support and I request all key players to remain focused on this roadmap as they contribute to the successful implementation of the plan. There is need for a concerted effort in lobbying for more resources to ensure the successful implementation of the plan.

    Labor Market Assessment Graduating to Resilience October 2018 “This publication is made possible by the generous support of the American people through the Office of Food for Peace, United States Agency for International Development (USAID) under terms of Cooperative Agreement No. AID-FFP-A-17-00006. The contents are the responsibility of AVSI Foundation and Graduating to Resilience and do not necessarily reflect the views of USAID or the United States Government.” Graduating to Resilience is implemented by AVSI Foundation in partnership with 2 Executive Summary Launched in October 2017, the Graduating to Resilience Activity (the Activity) aims to help extremely poor Ugandan and refugee households in Kamwenge, Uganda, graduate from conditions of food insecurity and fragile livelihoods to self-reliance and resilience. This Activity is being jointly implemented by the AVSI consortium (or team) consisting of the AVSI Foundation, IMPAQ International, and Trickle Up. To understand the current challenges and opportunities faced by Ugandan and refugee communities in pursuing meaningful livelihoods, the AVSI team conducted a labor market assessment (LMA). The purpose of the LMA was to: understand current livelihoods of Ugandans and refugee households living in Kamwege; identify avenues to strengthen current livelihoods for poor and ultra-poor households; and find ways to connect these households to other viable livelihoods that they could pursue with the Activity’s support. The key lessons learned from the LMA will contribute to the design and content of the interventions implemented under the Activity. To implement the LMA, we used a mixed methods approach to triangulate quantitative and qualitative evidence to examine the current state of the labor market among both Ugandan and refugee communities.
