  • Maternal Health Ntoroko
    MATERNAL HEALTH NTOROKO In Uganda, maternal mortality remains high at 440 maternal deaths per 100,000 live births. For every maternal death in Uganda, at least six survive with chronic and debilitating ill health. Most maternal deaths are due to causes directly related to pregnancy and childbirth unsafe abortion and obstetric complications such as severe bleeding, infection, hypertensive disorders, and obstructed labour1. According to the State of Worlds’ Children WHO, declines in maternal mortality have been registered in Uganda. a review of emergency obstetric care (EOC) facilities showed that in 54 districts out of 56 EOC’s throughout the country, over 97 % of facilities that expected to provide basic emergency services were not able to do so. Among the key impediments to service delivery were Lack of running water, electricity, and functioning operating theatres. Further reviews are urgently required to ensure that existing facilities are upgraded and new ones are established in a sustainable manner. Funding for medical supplies, including essential medicines, is a further priority. The UN inter-agency list of essential medicines for reproductive health serves as a useful guide to the minimum number of effective, cost saving drugs that should be available.2 FIGURE 1, POPULATION IN NTOROKO Ntoroko district is in the Rwenzururu (aka Rwenzori) sub-region located approximately 300 kilometres (190 mi), by road, west of Kampala and has an estimated population of 84,100 (2012). There are three subcounties – Kanara, Karugutu and Rwebisengo, which include 10 parishes and 56 villages. Cities nearby include Kijura, Ntoroko, Ndaiga, Fort Portal, Yenga, Bundibugyo, Kikorba, Bugado, and Kyenjojo.

  • 1Boctober 2020 to May 2021
    UGANDA Food Security Outlook October 2020 to May 2021 Economic re-opening, low food prices, and new harvests improve food security in late 2020 KEY MESSAGES • Across most of Uganda, Minimal (IPC Phase 1) outcomes are anticipated Current food security outcomes, October 2020 through May 2021. Low to near-average food prices, the second season harvest in November/December, and above-normal livestock production will likely provide minimally adequate food and income for most household to meet their basic food and non-food needs. In urban areas and some rural districts that have been worst affected by recent floods, however, some households will most likely face Stressed (IPC Phase 2) outcomes. Among these households, sluggish economic activity, flood-induced crop losses, and high bean prices will continue to limit household income and dietary diversity. • In Karamoja, food insecurity has improved to Stressed (IPC Phase 2). The green and dry harvests are replenishing household and market stocks, while broadly favorable terms of trade are enhancing household purchasing power. However, household income remains below normal, especially among households that rely on livestock and milk sales. These sales remain limited by localized quarantine measures and market closures to limit the spread of Foot and Mouth Disease and COVID-19. Heightened levels of insecurity and cattle rustling are also Source: FEWS NET compelling farmers to keep animals in protected kraals. By early 2021, FEWS NET classification is IPC-compatible. IPC-compatible deterioration to Crisis (IPC Phase 3) is expected. Many households will analysis follows key IPC protocols but does not necessarily likely have food consumption gaps during the lean season, since food reflect the consensus of national food security partners.
