Such data are collected through Population Censuses, Demographic and Socio-economic Surveys, Civil Registration Systems and other Administrative sources. In Uganda, however, the Population and Housing Census remains the main source of demographic data, especially at the sub-national level. Population Census taking in Uganda dates back to 1911 and since then the country has undertaken five such Censuses. The most recent, the National Population and Housing Census 2014, was undertaken under the theme ‘Counting for Planning and Improved Service Delivery’. The enumeration for the 2014 Census was conducted in August/September 2014. The Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS) worked closely with different Government Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) as well as Local Governments (LGs) to undertake the census exercise. The 2014 census provides several statistics on different aspects of the population.

  • Uganda: Floods & Landslides
    UGANDA: FLOODS & LANDSLIDES Flash Update No. 1 As of 19 December 2019 HIGHLIGHTS • Torrential rains are being experienced across Uganda. According to the Uganda National Meteorological Department (UNMA), above- normal rains will continue until the end of the year. • At least 38 people have died due to floods and landslides in Bundibugyo, Bududa and Sironko districts, and over 150 people have been injured. At least 300,000 have been affected and an estimated 65,000 people are displaced, according to Government sources. • The floods and landslides have left a trail of destruction, including damaged homes, infrastructure, agriculture and livelihoods. • The Government of Uganda, with the support of humanitarian partners, is responding to the most urgent needs of people affected. SITUATION OVERVIEW Due to heavier than normal rains since September—enhanced by the positive Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD)—several districts in Uganda have been experiencing flash floods (mostly in urban areas) and landslides (in rural/hilly areas). According to preliminary estimates from a rapid assessment conducted by the Office of the Prime Minister in the most affected sub-regions of Mount Elgon and South Western Uganda in early December, at least 300,000 people have been affected, including 65,000 people reportedly displaced by the impact of heavy rains since September 2019. Over 21,500 hectares of crop and plantations are reportedly damaged in these areas. As of 17 December, 38 people have reportedly lost their lives, including in the mountainous Bundibugyo district in the western region and the Mount Elgon area in eastern Uganda. Water systems in Bundibugyo have been destroyed, exacerbating the risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases.

A B S T R A C T Colletotrichum lindemuthianum is a highly variable pathogen of common beans that easily overcomes resistance in cultivars bred with single-gene resistance. To determine pathogenic variability of the pathogen in Uganda, samples of common bean tissues with anthracnose symptoms were collected in eight districts of Uganda, namely Kabarole, Sironko, Mbale, Oyam, Lira, Kapchorwa, Maracha and Kisoro. 51 isolates sporulated successfully on Potato Dextrose Agar and Mathur’s media and were used to inoculate 12 differential cultivars under controlled conditions. Five plants per cultivar were inoculated with each isolate and then evaluated for their reaction using the 1 – 9 severity scale. Races were classified using the binary nomenclature system proposed by Pastor Corrales (1991). Variation due to cultivar and isolate effects was significant (P≤0.001) for severity. The 51 isolates from eight districts grouped into 27 different races. Sironko district had the highest number of races followed by Mbale and Kabarole. Races 2047 and 4095 were the most frequently found, each with 10 isolates grouped under them.

  • Ecological Factors Influencing Incidence and Severity of Coffee Leaf Rust and Coffee Berry Disease in Major Arabica Coffee Growing Districts of Uganda

Box 633-00621, Village Market, Nairobi, Kenya Author for correspondence: [email protected] Abstract Coffee Leaf Rust and Coffee Berry Disease are the most devastating diseases of Arabica coffee in Africa. The importance of coffee in economies of many African countries like Uganda, presents urgent need for cost-effective disease control strategies. In this study, 192 coffee farms were surveyed and their corresponding incidence and severity recorded. Nebbi district had the highest CLR incidence (90.2%) and severity (2.2%) followed by Sironko (67.9% and 1.9%) and least in Kapchorwa (20.4% and 1.3%) respectively. CBD incidence was highest in Kapchorwa (6.0%) followed by Nebbi (1.7%).There was no CBD incidence observed in Sironko. There was a significant (pd”0.05) interaction between altitude and disease severity. Thin and medium shade intensity had highest CLR incidence followed by thick and no-shade levels. CLR was highest in farms under mono-shade followed by farms under mixed-shade and least in open-farms. CLR severity was found to be highest at very steep slopes and medium slopes and least on gentle slopes.

    Sironko District Hazard, Risk and Vulnerability Profi le 2016 SIRONKO DISTRICT HAZARD, RISK AND VULNERABILITY PROFILE a Acknowledgment On behalf of Office of the Prime Minister, I wish to express my sincere appreciation to all of the key stakeholders who provided their valuable inputs and support to this Multi-Hazard, Risk and Vulnerability mapping exercise that led to the production of a comprehensive district Hazard, Risk and Vulnerability (HRV) profiles. I extend my sincere thanks to the Department of Relief, Disaster Preparedness and Management, under the leadership of the Commissioner, Mr. Martin Owor, for the oversight and management of the entire exercise. The HRV assessment team was led by Ms. Ahimbisibwe Catherine, Senior Disaster Preparedness Officer supported by Odong Martin, Disaster Management Officer and the team of consultants (GIS/ DRR specialists); Dr. Bernard Barasa, and Mr. Nsiimire Peter, who provided technical support. Our gratitude goes to UNDP for providing funds to support the Hazard, Risk and Vulnerability Mapping. The team comprised of Mr. Steven Goldfinch – Disaster Risk Management Advisor, Mr. Gilbert Anguyo - Disaster Risk Reduction Analyst, and Mr. Ongom Alfred-Early Warning system Programmer. My appreciation also goes to the Sironko District team. The entire body of stakeholders who in one way or another yielded valuable ideas and time to support the completion of this exercise. Hon. Hilary O. Onek Minister for Relief, Disaster Preparedness and Refugees SIRONKO DISTRICT HAZARD, RISK AND VULNERABILITY PROFILE i EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The multi-hazard vulnerability profile outputs from this assessment was a combination of spatial modeling using socio-ecological spatial layers (i.e. DEM, Slope, Aspect, Flow Accumulation, Land use, vegetation cover, hydrology, soil types and soil moisture content, population, socio-economic, health facilities, accessibility, and meteorological data) and information captured from District Key Informant interviews and sub-county FGDs using a participatory approach.
