UPSIDE Uganda Programme for Sustainable and Inclusive Development of the Economy
UPSIDE focuses on value chain development and making the markets work better for the poor. UPSIDE builds on experience with previous interventions and will have a particular focus on Northern Uganda.
New elements include a focus on climate smart agriculture as well as promoting sexual and reproductive health and rights and countering gender-based violence.
UPSIDE has three engagements, with distinct but linked aims:
Northern Uganda Resilience Initiative (NURI): Enhanced resilience and equitable economic development in supported areas of Northern Uganda, including for refugees and refugee-host communities.
For more information go to: www.nuri.ag
Agricultural Business Initiative (aBi): Increased income and employment through environmentally and socially responsible investments in improved productivity, quality and value addition in agri-businesses and among smallholder farmers in supported agricultural value chains. For more information go to: www.abi.co.ug
TradeMark East Africa (TMEA): Increased trade through reduced barriers to trade and business competitiveness.
