Click here for the NEW BUDS PROJECT
Private Sector Foundation Uganda (PSFU) through the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM) received funding from UK Department for International Development (DFID) under the Northern Uganda Post Conflict Recovery Program. The matching grant scheme will help a thousand small businesses in Northern Uganda to expand their operations and to create new employment opportunities. PSFU and the UK Department for International Development are therefore launching this programme today. The project covers over 60 districts in Northern Uganda and is worth 13 million pounds sterling over the next four years.
The objective of the programme is to stimulate pro-poor economic growth in Northern Uganda and to better retain the economic benefits of especially agriculture in the Post Conflict regions.
