The project company is Kalangala Infrastructure Services Limited (KIS), registered in Uganda, and a wholly- owned subsidiary of the project sponsor InfraCo Limited, registered in the United Kingdom. The purpose of the Executive Summary is to provide an overview, in non-technical language, of the main findings of the ESIA. Detailed information, including references and sources, can be found in respective chapters of the ESIA. 0.2 PROJECT BACKGROUND In September 2005, the Government of Uganda (GoU) and InfraCo Limited entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), pursuant to which InfraCo was designated as the developer of the Kalangala Infrastructure Project on behalf of the GoU. Following conclusion of the first phase of work under the MoU, in March 2006, InfraCo submitted to the Steering Committee a Project Development Plan.

  • External Evaluation of District Development Cooperation Programmes in Kalangala District in Uganda
    External Evaluation of District Development Cooperation Programmes in Kalangala District in Uganda FINAL REPORT [V3-2] Prepared by: GOPA Experts Tore Laugerud Godfrey Mukwaya Andrew Arinaitwe 13 August 2018 The opinions expressed in this document represent the authors’ points of view, and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of ICEIDA, The Icelandic Embassy in Uganda, Kalangala District staff or any of the individual persons or institutions consulted. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Executive Summary 1. The Kalangala District Development Programme (KDDP) (“the Programme”) was implemented by Kalangala District Local Government (KDLG) during the period 2006-2015, largely financed and supported by Icelandic International Development Cooperation (ICEIDA). Based on needs assessment surveys in 2005, a multi-sectoral programme was designed, covering the strengthening of district and sub-county governments and support to the main sectors: fish- eries (including WATSAN), education, health (2006-2010) and tourism (2011-2013). The Education Component continued into a consolidation phase 2016-2019 (KIEP), still ongoing at the time of this Evaluation. 2. Kalangala comprises 84 islands (Ssese Islands) widely scattered in Lake Victoria, out of which 64 are populated, many being “hard-to-reach”. Population during the last census in 2014 was 53,400, estimated to be around 60,000 in 2018. KDDP was clearly relevant, addressing the main sector challenges of the District, largely being lack of basic infrastructure and services (too low revenue base) to reduce the widespread poverty amongst the marginalised fishing communities. The Programme was at the time of planning, and still was during the Evaluation, very much in line with the national policies and strategies for economic development, poverty eradication and decentralisation of the government system.

  • An Assessment of the Impacts of Oil Palm in Kalangala and Buvuma Lessons Learned and Recommendations for Future Developments
    An assessment of the impacts of oil palm in Kalangala and Buvuma Lessons learned and recommendations for future developments An assessment of the impacts of oil palm in Kalangala and Buvuma Lessons learned and recommendations for future developments Richard Ssemmanda and Michael Opige (eds.) This publication has been produced under the framework of the Green Livelihoods Alliance. The Green Livelihoods Alliance (GLA) ‘Forested landscapes for equity; a strong civil society for inclusive and sustainable development’ programme seeks to strengthen the abilities and effectiveness of Southern civil society organizations (CSOs) to influence related policies and practices to achieve inclusive and sustainable governance of forested landscapes. The core of the Alliance’s strategy is to (i) join CSOs in lobbying for and advocating inclusive and sustainable governance of forested landscapes, and (ii) strengthen capacities of partner CSOs to technically, politically and economically empower and represent local communities. The global 2016-2020 programme is implemented in nine countries around the world. The GLA is a Strategic Partnership funded by the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs within their Dialogue and Dissent Programme, with three Dutch partners, Milieudefensie (partner of Friends of the Earth), IUCN NL, and Tropenbos International (TBI). The Ugandan-based NGO, the National Association of Professional Environmentalists (NAPE), is the GLA partner of Milieudefensie and acts as the national focus point. Ecological Trends Alliance (ETA) is the Ugandan partner of TBI and leads the contact for this research. TBI applies an approach that combines action research and capacity building towards effective and informed dialogue related to the priorities and outcomes in Uganda.
