| Summary: | In the past decade, Uganda has made
significant progress in reducing poverty and sustaining high
economic growth. However, Uganda still faces considerable
challenges that include poor infrastructure, weak public
service delivery, low levels of human capital, and
underdeveloped institutions. This note analyzes jobs-related
projects in Uganda to identify focus areas and gaps in the
portfolio in relation to country priorities mentioned in the
World Bank’s country policy framework (CPF). The objective
of this exercise is to understand how well the jobs agenda
is being implemented through lending operations and the
types of targeted jobs outcomes. This note seeks to
influence future investments and analytical work in the
country and provide a baseline for further analysis on jobs
in the World Bank and other donors’ portfolios. |
