Poverty and homelessness
Food insecurity
Uganda has one of the highest refugee populations in the world, with over 1.5 million largely coming from the Democratic Republic of the Congo and South Sudan.
Uganda is extremely vulnerable to natural hazards, resulting in massive climatic events and food insecurity. The frequency of extreme weather events continues to affect the daily lives of Uganda’s civilian population, the vast majority living in poverty.
