Southwards, Butambala and Kyotera Districts had comparably higher incidence rates. This week, Angal st. Lukes’s Hospital in Nebbi District reported the highest numbers of death (4). Adherence to treatment of who were tested negative for malaria remains poor. Buikwe, Kisoro, Kumi, Lira, and Rakai Districts reported the highest proportion of facilities reporting stockouts of ACTs. (<33%) Kampala, Buliisa, Amuria, Kibaale, Kole and Kumi Districts reported over 80% of health facilities reporting RDT stockouts. Of all the districts, 50% (64) had reporting rates <80%. This requires improvement for enhanced data quality. Actions from the previous week Of the three deaths in Mbale Regional Referral Hospital last week, all were children <10 years of age. One died from severe anemia, another due to delayed care seeking. Details on the third death was not readily available.

    THE REPUBLIC OF UGANDA NEBBI DISTRICT LOCAL GOVERNMENT PRODUCTION AND MARKETING STATISTICAL ABSTRACT FOR FY 2011/2012 By Production Directorate Nebbi District Local Government July, 2012 Foreword The need for agricultural statistics cannot be overstated. It is vital for evidence-based planning and tracking of progress in the sector. Nebbi district production directorate has over the years been engaged in the collection of data at different levels in all the subsectors. However, the data was scattered within the individual departments and local governments and also lacking in some details. Because of this, the directorate undertook an effort to update and consolidate all the existing data/information and publish an Abstract. The information in this Abstract is derived from surveys conducted by the District Production Directorate, District Planning Unit, Records from sub counties, Censuses from UBOS and Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Industry and Fisheries. The Abstract is divided into seven sections providing information/statistics on the following sectors; crops, livestock/veterinary services, fisheries, entomology (Apiculture), marketing and NAADS and General Information on Nebbi district. We sincerely hope that information in this Abstract will be useful to our stakeholders. Utmost care was taken to compile this information, however, comments from stakeholders on any gaps or vital information that is lacking will be welcomed.

  • Understanding Poverty Dynamics in Nebbi District, Uganda
    Africa Development, Vol. XXXIII, No. 2, 2008, pp. 117–140 © Council for the Development of Social Science Research in Africa, 2008 (ISSN 0850-3907) Poverty Eradication Dilemma: Understanding Poverty Dynamics in Nebbi District, Uganda Alfred Lakwo* Abstract This paper addresses a current methodological gap in poverty measurement, which stems from acknowledging the multi-dimensionality of poverty, on the one hand, and using an income/consumption measurement of poverty as the norm, on the other. The current income-based measure of poverty presents only part of measuring poverty status as a whole. The consumption basket is wrongly taken by those of economic inclination to wholly represent the entire, even non- monetary valued, range of poverty. The paper approaches this dilemma using a participatory and community-driven approach where the subjective views of people are used to define and categorize the poor, contrary to the poverty line approach. Such categorization was based on the perceived wellness of life and what made/denied wellness. A survey follows to explore the quantitative scope of poverty. This participatory, qualitative and quantitative mix of method, it is argued, provides for ascertaining organizational accountability in terms of the relevance of programme targeting and outreach as well as performance measurement over time. The method can also be used to deepen current participatory poverty assessments that simply stop at defining and identifying poverty causes, effects and solutions. Résumé Ce document porte sur la déficience méthodologique notée actuellement dans la mesure de la pauvreté. Ceci découle, d’une part, du caractère multidimensionnel de la pauvreté, et d’autre part, de l’utilisation comme norme de la mesure de la * Programme Director, Agency for Accelerated Regional Development, P.O.
