Five years ago, the Government of Uganda made a commitment to deliver on Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development. In 2016, Uganda became a front runner by establishing the National SDG Coordination Framework, which brings together state and non-state actors, with an objective to ensure a coherent, consistent, and seamless SDG implementation process.
What started as a health crisis very quickly morphed into a global human, economic and social crisis. We are all living the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic daily, in one way or another.
When the Government of Uganda and the United Nations in Uganda worked together to establish the SDG Secretariat under the Office of the Prime Minister, it accorded us an important platform to deliberate and work together as partners on sustainable development.
