Bilateral development aid - 2018
Uganda became a priority country for Polish development cooperation in September 2018. The Polish development aid for this country involved two projects carried out by the Embassy of the Republic of Poland in Nairobi and a volunteering project. Polish support allowed raising the standards of perinatal care in the Koja medical facility. Two other projects involved young people, a significant fraction of Uganda’s population (one half of which is under 15 years old), with a view to ensuring equal educational opportunities for children from disadvantaged communities and involving them in activities conducive to their correct psychomotor development and acquisition of social skills. This is achieved by sporting activities and profiled vocational courses. Another project carried out there involved humanitarian efforts to aid children and young people from Southern Sudan who fled civil war to the Palabek camp in northern Uganda.
In 2018, the total ODA for Uganda was PLN 1.06 million
