  • Proposal for Uganda
    AFB.PPRC.27-28.2 AFB/PPRC.26-27/2 21 June 2021 Adaptation Fund Board Project and Programme Review Committee PROPOSAL FOR UGANDA AFB/PPRC.27-28/2 Background 1. The Operational Policies and Guidelines (OPG) for Parties to Access Resources from the Adaptation Fund (the Fund), adopted by the Adaptation Fund Board (the Board), state in paragraph 45 that regular adaptation project and programme proposals, i.e. those that request funding exceeding US$ 1 million, would undergo either a one-step, or a two-step approval process. In case of the one-step process, the proponent would directly submit a fully-developed project proposal. In the two-step process, the proponent would first submit a brief project concept, which would be reviewed by the Project and Programme Review Committee (PPRC) and would have to receive the endorsement of the Board. In the second step, the fully-developed project/programme document would be reviewed by the PPRC, and would ultimately require the Board’s approval. 2. The Templates approved by the Board (Annex 5 of the OPG, as amended in March 2016) do not include a separate template for project and programme concepts but provide that these are to be submitted using the project and programme proposal template. The section on Adaptation Fund Project Review Criteria states: For regular projects using the two-step approval process, only the first four criteria will be applied when reviewing the 1st step for regular project concept. In addition, the information provided in the 1st step approval process with respect to the review criteria for the regular project concept could be less detailed than the information in the request for approval template submitted at the 2nd step approval process.

  • Payment for Ecosystems Services: a Pathway for Environmental Conservation in Uganda
    Payment for Ecosystems Services: A Pathway for Environmental Conservation in Uganda BY DR. EMMANUEL KASIMBAZI ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR, SCHOOL OF LAW, MAKERERE UNIVERSITY Ecosystems in Uganda • Uganda is gifted by nature, its geographical location has endowed it with a range of geographical features which range from glacier topped mountains, tropical rain forests, and dry deciduous acacia bush lands, to vast lakes and rivers, wetlands as well as fertile agricultural landscapes. • It was called the Pearl of Africa by the Britain’s World War II Prime minister, Sir Winston Churchill on his visit in 1907 to Uganda and was attracted to the magnificent scenery (landscape), wildlife and friendly natives (culture). To him, the beauty of it all could only be described as a pearl. Structure of the Presentation 1. Introduction: Ecosystems in Uganda 2. What is payment of ecosystems Services (PES) 3. Some benefits of PES 4. Legal and Policy Framework for Implementing PES 5. Some Projects that Implementing PES 6. The Challenges of Implementing in PES to conserve the Environment 7. Conclusion and strategies for PES to achieve environmental conservation Map of Uganda What is payment of ecosystems Services (PES)? PES is a product of an ecosystem service where there is a buyer such as companies, governments or an organization that is able and willing to pay for the conservation of the specific ecosystem service and there must be a seller or provider such as local communities, receiving a financial resource, who, in exchange, must promise to maintain that ecosystem service. Types of PES There are various types of PES. • Carbon sequestration and storage.

    Country Profile Republic of Uganda Giraffe Conservation Status Report Sub-region: East Africa General statistics Size of country: 236,040 km² Size of protected areas / percentage protected area coverage: 8% (Sub)species Rothschild’s giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis rothschildi) Conservation Status IUCN Red List (IUCN 2012): Giraffa camelopardalis (as a species) – Least Concern Giraffa camelopardalis rothschildi – Endangered In the Republic of Uganda: In the Republic of Uganda (referred to as Uganda in this report), giraffe are protected under the Game (Preservation and Control) Act of 1959 (Chapter 198). Giraffe are listed under Part A of the First Schedule of the Act as animals that may not be hunted or captured in Uganda. Issues/threats Uganda is home to the Rothschild’s giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis rothschildi), one of the most imperilled giraffe (sub)species remaining in the wild. Illegal hunting, agricultural expansion, human encroachment, and habitat degradation, fragmentation and destruction have led to the extirpation of Rothschild’s giraffe from almost all of its former range (GCF 2013; USAID 2011; Fennessy & Brenneman 2010; Sidney 1965). Only a few small and isolated populations of Rothschild’s giraffe remain in Uganda (and Kenya), all of which are now confined to national parks and other protected areas (GCF 2013; Fennessy & Brenneman 2010). In the 1960s, wildlife numbers and diversity in Uganda was high, roaming freely both inside and outside of protected areas in the country (Rwetsiba & Nuwamanya 2010; Olupot et al. 2009; Rwetsiba & Wanyama 2005). The breakdown of rule and law in the country during the 1970s and early 1980s resulted in large- scale illegal hunting for bush meat by starving local people and soldiers, causing a significant decease of wildlife numbers, including giraffe (Rwetsiba et al.

  • 12 Day Primates & Predators
    Uganda is a unique destination offering a wonderful mix of savannah and forest parks. Gorilla and chimp tracking are highlights, but many smaller primates can be seen as well. Uganda also offers great savannah safaris, but not all of the Big Five are present. Black rhino is extinct, and the status of the white rhino was the same until they were reintroduced in Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary in 2005. Cheetah is very rarely seen. Lion is quite common in Queen Elizabeth and Murchison Falls national parks. They can often be found hunting Uganda kob, which gives them away with their alarm calls. Giraffe can only be found in Murchison Falls, Lake Mburo and Kidepo Valley national parks, while zebra exists only in Kidepo and Lake Mburo national parks and Katonga wildlife reserve. Uganda is also a prime birding destination. You will see most of these species at some point in this wonderful full coverage itinerary throughout Uganda 12 Day Primates & Predators ITINERARY UGANDA Day 1: Monday 15 July 2019 Today, you will be collected from Entebbe Airport and transferred to Hotel No 5 for one night.
