The Karamoja Development Partners Group (KDPG) is made up of donors and UN agencies working in the Karamoja sub-region. Key objectives include enhancing dialogue between development partners and the Government of Uganda (GoU), at both national and regional level and strengthening co-ordination and harmonization between development partners including alignment with GoU priorities as expressed in the Karamoja Integrated Development Plan.
This donor mapping exercise has been compiled by the USAID supported Karamoja Resilience Unit (KRSU), on behalf of the KDPG.
The 10 donors who have inputted to this mapping exercise – Department for International Development (UK), USAID, World Bank, Irish Aid, SIDA (Sweden), EU, Germany, Japan, KOICA (Korea) and Italy provide a significant majority of the external funds flows to Karamoja.
This is the second year that the KDPG has produced this mapping exercise. This year it is estimated that these 10 donors will provide €89 million (approx. 380 billion Ugx) during 2017.
