FY 2020/21 Vote:579 Bududa District LG Approved Workplan Vote:579 Bududa District FY 2020/21 Foreword The Annual work plan for the financial year 2020/21 has been developed in accordance with the District five year Development Plans 2020/21-2024/25,National Development Plan III (2020/21- 2024/25) whose process of having them approved is still under way, Vision 2040, sustainable development goals and policy guidelines from the different line ministries. This Budget Framework Paper for financial year 2020/21 is an extract from the DPP III which is still under formulation. The Budget Framework paper for 2020/21 has also been aligned to the district 5 year strategic objectives which are also aligned to the National Strategic Objectives. The district will focus on value addition, increasing production and productivity, provision of the necessary infrastructure, increasing access to quality social services. The process of developing this plan was participatory in nature ranging from the district budget conference which was conducted on the 06/11/2019 at the district headquarters. This drew number of stakeholders including political leaders, technical staff, religious leaders and development partners. The funding for this plan is expected from different Central Government grants which include among others District Discretionary Equalization Grant (DDEG), District Unconditional grants for ZDJHDQG1RQZDJH6HFWRU1RQwage, wage and Development grants for Water, Roads, Health, Education, Production and Marketing, Natural Resources. More funding is expected from donors like UNICEF Uganda, GAVI, World health Organization, UNFPA among others. The district will receive off budget support from NAADS for Operation Wealth Creation (OWC), UNICEF, RHITES - E and other local CSOs that will contribute to the development agenda of the district. The development direction for the district is improving the quality of both primary and secondary education, Infrastructural Development under Roads, Water, Education, Health, enhancing agricultural production and environmental protection and management. The district continues to face a number of challenges including Low staffing levels, limited wage bill, difficulty in attracting and retaining of staff in hard to reach and stay areas, disasters which have continuously destroyed facilities like, health facilities, and water sources, bridges and roads, hard terrain making costs of constructing facilities in such areas very expensive hence consuming much of the already limited resource envelope. We hope to work hard to ensure that the funds are utilized as per the stipulated guides to meet all the targets for the financial year 2020/21 For God and My Country Namulondo Tappy Chief Administrative Officer Generated on 17/06/2020 03:21 1 LG Approved Workplan Vote:579 Bududa District FY 2020/21 SECTION A: Workplans for HLG Workplan 1a Administration Quarterly Workplan Outputs for FY 2020/21 Ushs Thousands Approved Budget Expenditure and Annual Planned Quarter 1 Quarter 2 Quarter 3 Quarter 4 and Outputs for Outputs by end Spending and Planned Spending Planned Planned Spending Planned Spending FY 2019/20 March for FY Outputs FY and Outputs Spending and and Outputs and Outputs 2019/20 2020/21 Outputs Programme: 13 81 District and Urban Administration Class Of OutPut: Higher LG Services Generated on 17/06/2020 03:21 2 LG Approved Workplan Vote:579 Bududa District FY 2020/21 Output: 13 81 01Operation of the Administration Department Non Standard Outputs: General office General office General office General office General office General office General office management and management and management and management and management and management and management and operations, routine operations, routine operations, routine operations, routine operations, routine operations, routine operations, routine supervision and supervision and supervision and supervision and supervision and supervision and supervision and monitoring . staff monitoring . staff monitoring . staff monitoring . monitoring . monitoring . monitoring . both at higher and both at higher and both at higher and staff both at higher staff both at higher staff both at higher staff both at higher lower local lower local lower local and lower local and lower local and lower local and lower local governments governments governments governments governments governments governments mentored.

All sources of information used have been correctly referenced, and any other assistance rendered has been fully acknowledged. Signature: ………………………………………….. Author: ………………………………………….. Date: …........……………………… JOHN JUVENTINE EKOTU ii ABSTRACT Landslides are among the most widespread geological hazards that threaten human lives worldwide, most especially on the mountainous regions of the world. On 1 March 2010, a devastating debris flow occurred in Nametsi village, Bukalasi Sub County, Bududa district in Eastern Uganda. The landslide event caused significant damage to farmland, crops, and livestock; claimed over 400 human lives and displaced an estimated 5,000 people. The high death toll and damage suffered by households from this landslide suggested high level vulnerability, absence of resilience and coping mechanisms. This study focuses on the assessment of household landslide hazard vulnerabilities and vulnerable elements in Bududa. It addresses the household awareness of landslide hazards, landslide early warning, mitigation, resilience and coping strategies that have been employed by households in the area over time. This was a qualitative study with a cross sectional approach.

  • Uganda • Eastern Uganda Landslides and Floods Bududa District
    Uganda • Eastern Uganda Landslides and Floods Situation Report #1 3 March 2010 This report was issued by OCHA Uganda. It covers the period from 1 to 3 March 2010. The next report will be issued on or around 7 March. I. HIGHLIGHTS/KEY PRIORITIES • Landslides have occurred in the mountainous areas of eastern Uganda, burying three villages in Bududa District and leaving at least 80 people and over 300 missing. • Search and rescue teams have been forced to employ shovels and hand held hoes; access constraints have prevented the deployment of more effective earth moving equipment. • Two Government-led inter-agency assessment teams have been dispatched to the affected region targeting Bududa and Butaleja districts. II. Situation Overview On Monday 1 March 2010, landslides occurred on the slopes of Mt. Elgon in eastern Uganda following heavy downpours. Bududa District According to the Office of the Prime Minister and local media reports, at least 80 people have been confirmed dead in the district of Bududa where a landslide covering an area 200 metres wide descended on and buried three whole villages in Nametsi Parish of Bukalasi sub-county. Only 31 survivors have been accounted for while over 300 people are still missing. The villages – Nametsi, Kubehwo and Namangasa – were highly populated with over 3,000 people located high in the mountain. At present, the disaster area is only accessible by foot or air, due to its remoteness and the lack of any serviceable road network. Nametsi Health Centre III was buried in the mudslide, leaving only Bukalasi Health Centre III located 3 km away and Bududa Hospital 15 km removed as the health facilities nearest to the affected area.

  • Wmi 2011 Visit to Uganda
    WMI 2011 VISIT TO UGANDA In January 2011 WMI president, Robyn Nietert, began a month long trip to Uganda to check on loan program operations, launch new hub locations, finalize banking agreements, and assist with program expansion. She was accompanied for part of the trip by her husband, Malcolm Stevenson, and interns Colleen Rossier (a recent UVA graduate) and Victoria Stevenson (a Tufts University sophomore and her daughter). They met up with WMI’s fall project directors, Ainsley Morris and Montana Stevenson (also her daughter), who have been handling projects for the WMI loan program since September, when they arrived in Uganda. The visit began with a joyful day long celebration of the loan program’s success. Over 300 borrowers in WMI’s Buyobo village hub location marched in their color groups to show their pride in the loan program which they administer themselves and which maintains a 100% repayment rate. The women’s faces conveyed their happiness. Joining the WMI loan program has made them part of a community based organization bringing economic empowerment to individuals, families and villages. Local dignitaries gave speeches congratulating the women. Here the Rev. Kikoso speaks admiringly of the savings culture the women have established. Borrowers testified about the many ways the WMI loan program has improved life for themselves and their families. Pricia Mafabi (in red) explained how she and her husband saved a few thousands shillings everyday until they had enough money to buy a motorbike for their business. Jackline Nemonye, WMI’s Assistant Local Director, smiles as she holds up the box Pricia made to hold her savings.
