Sustainable Wood Based Value Chain Project in Uganda

Abstract

This project has been developed to inform interventions under the “Partnering for Forests in Uganda” Initiative of the European Union (EU). In November 2022, the European Union signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for a Forest Partnership with the Government of the Republic of Uganda (GoU) as a contribution to the international dimension of the EU Green Deal. Subsequently a country-level roadmap for Uganda, including concrete actions, milestones, and associated responsibilities was developed in June 2023. The project is aligned to FAO Uganda’s Country Programming Framework (CPF) and the EU Multi-annual Indicative Programme (MIP) for Uganda 2022-2027.
