FOREWORD

It is mandatory for Ministries, Departments, Agencies (MDAs) and Local Government (LGs) to address gender and equity issues in formulation of Budget Framework Papers and Ministerial Policy Statements. However, there are still issues of capacity to effectively achieve this objective. The last five consecutive assessments of compliance for Gender and Equity Budgeting, by the Equal Opportunities Commission revealed persistent limited capacity of MDAs to discern gender and equity issues. It was also noted that the gender and equity issues being addressed were not necessarily aligned to the commitments in the National Development Plans.

A lot of effort was put into mainstreaming gender and equity commitments inthe third National Development Plan (NDPIII). These were integrated at the strategic level, as well as in the 20 programmatic areas. In order to mobilise the MDAs and LGs to ensure effective implementation of the NDPIII gender and equity commitments, programmatic handbooks have been developed.

These Handbooks spell out the gender and equity issues under each programme; the proposed interventions in NDPIII, the related actions in the Programme Implementation Action Plan, and performance indicators. In addition, there are emerging gender and equity issues resulting from COVID-19 effects that were agreed on during the dialogue with all programme stakeholders.

I urge you to use this tool, to prioritise interventions that will foster inclusive growth and development which the country is pursuing.

Ramathan GgoobiPermanent Secretary/Secretary to the Treasury

1.0 IntroductionThis Handbook spells out the gender and equity issues as well as planned interventions/actions in the Natural Resources, Environment, Climate Change, Land and Water Management Programme during the third National Development Plan (2020/21 to 2024/25) period.

1.1 BackgroundThe third National Development Plan (NDP III), comes at a time when Uganda, like the rest of the world, is confronted with the COVID-19 pandemic. Now more than ever, the slogan of the Sustainable Development Goals of leaving none behind is critical. Fairness of treatment to the needs of people in all walks of life is vital for development. Gender equity is required in all aspects of life including; education, health, nutrition, decent employment, access to economic assets and resources, political opportunities and freedom from coercion and violence for men and women, boys and girls and the elderly. Gender and equity are crucial to ensure that gender issues are integrated into all national policies, plans and programs for development.

It is mandatory for Ministries, Departments, Agencies (MDAs) and Local Government (LGs) to address gender and equity issues in the formulation of Budget Framework Paper and Ministerial Policy Statements. However, there are still issues of capacity to effectively achieve this objective. The Equal Opportunities Commission’s last five consecutive assessments of Gender and Equity Budgeting (GEB) compliance of Budget Framework Papers and Ministerial Policy Statements revealed the persistent limited capacity of MDAs to discern gender and equity issues. It was also noted that the gender and equity issues being addressed were not necessarily aligned to commitments in the National Development Plans.

Challenges and lessons from NDPI and NDP II1, showed seven (7) persistent gender and equity sensitive concerns. These include: • The large proportion of households still stuck in the subsistence economy,• High cost of electricity,• Persistent vulnerabilities and wide-regional disparities in attaining required

poverty reduction targets,• Low investment in social protection systems,• The poor quality of education characterised by the low levels of literacy and

numeracy, coupled with the high rate of school dropouts,• High burden of disease amidst low functionality of health facilities, and• Undernutrition among children and women remains high.

1These are listed in the NDPII background


A lot of effort was made to mainstream the gender and equity commitments in NDPIII. These were integrated at the strategic level as well as 20 programmatic areas. There is a need to ensure effective implementation of these gender and equity commitments by MDAs and LGs.

1.2 Justification for the HandbookTo avoid the slow implementation of the gender and equity responsive interventions, this time round, there is a need to mobilise MDAs and LGs. This necessitates the development of a mobilisation tool. This Handbook, to facilitate the mobilisation, spells out the gender and equity issues; proposed interventions and performance indicators.The Handbook will simplify the integration of gender and equity responsive interventions into the Budget Framework Paper and Ministerial Policy Statements. This will strengthen the capacity of MDAs and LGs that has been inadequate.

1.3 Intended Users of the HandbookThis Handbook is intended for officials involved in planning, budgeting and monitoring at Central and Local Government levels, however, it can also be used by other stakeholders.1.3.1 Primary Users The primary users of the Handbook are the Programme Leadership Committee; Programme Technical Committee, Programme Working Group, and Programme Technical Working Group Sub-committees; specifically, decision-makers (Ministers, Permanent Secretaries, Directors, Commissioners, Programme/Project Managers). Technical officers and politicians in charge of planning, budgeting, implementation, monitoring and evaluation can also use the Handbook.

1.3.2 Secondary Users These will include Civil Society Organisations (CSOs), Researchers, Development Partners, Academia, Gender and Equity Trainers plus Assessors.

2.0 How to use the Handbook The Handbook shall be used in the preparation of Budget Framework Papers for MDAs and Local Governments, and Ministerial Policy Statements for MDAs and Missions. The BFPs and MPSs are policy documents structured for both reporting and planning purposes. The users should ensure integration of gender and equity outcomes, interventions, outputs and their respective indicators across all the sections.

Users should highlight how the intended target population has accessed, participated, benefited from the interventions as well as their disaggregation in terms of; location (rural, urban, hard-to-reach); equity (children, youth, elderly, persons with disability, chronically sick and other vulnerable groups); gender (women/girls, men/boys), and inclusiveness of the interventions. These parameters should also be given priority during annual and quarterly work plans development and reporting at all levels.

Table 1: How to use the Handbook during the Planning and Budgeting ProcessTable 1: How to use the Handbook during the Planning and Budgeting Process


Table 1: How to use the Handbook during the Planning and Budgeting Process 3.0 Gender and Equity Responsiveness in the Natural Resources, Environment, Climate Change, Land and Water Management Programme Budgeting is the tool through which Government translates its priorities into public services. The government has also prioritised gender and equity as the best approach to inclusive national development and equitable distribution of resources, opportunities, and wealth. Therefore, Gender and Equity Planning and Budgeting is an approach of allocating and utilising resources taking into consideration the different needs, interests, and constraints of the various categories of people without any discrimination and addressing any imbalances that exist.

Natural Resources, Environment, Climate Change, Land and Water Management is one of the 20 Programmes of the NDPIII. Its goal is to “reduce environmental degradation and the adverse effects of climate change as well as improve utilisation of natural resources for sustainable economic growth and livelihood security.”

This programme will focus on;i. Reversing environment and natural resource degradation, ii. Ensuring availability of adequate water resources for national development, iii. Containing the effects of climate change and fostering effective land management.

Most of these challenges are part of the gender and equity issues which when addressed shall improve the livelihood of Ugandans especially the vulnerable persons. The Programme will be delivered through three sub-programmes namely: (I) Water Management and Development, (II) Environment and Natural Resources, and (III) Land Management.

Therefore, the Programme Objectives are to:i. Ensure availability of adequate and reliable quality freshwater resources for all uses; ii. Increase forest, tree and wetland coverage, restore bare hills and protect mountainous areas and rangelands; iii. Strengthen land use and management; iv. Maintain and/or restore a clean, healthy, and productive environment; v. Promote inclusive climate-resilient and low emissions development at all levels; vi. Reduce human and economic loss from natural hazards and disasters; vii. Increase incomes and employment through sustainable use and value addition to water, forests and other natural resources.

And the key expected results include: improved land use and management; increasing land area covered under forests and wetlands, increasing compliance of water permit holders with permit conditions and enhancing the accuracy of meteorological information.


3.1 Gender and Equity Issues and their Responsive Interventions in the Natural Resources, Environment, Climate Change, Land and Water Management Programme

This section elaborates the gender and equity issues in the Natural Resources, Environment, Climate Change, Land and Water Management Programme, and how they affect programming for inclusive development. It is intended to guide users to effectively implement gender and equity responsive interventions.

Table two (2) highlights the gender and equity issues and their justifications, related interventions, outputs and corresponding actions in the Programme Implementation Action Plan (PIAP).

5.0 Emerging Issues

During the dialogue held with stakeholders in the Natural Resources, Environment, Climate Change, Land and Water Management Programme, the following were the emerging issues for consideration during the midterm review of the National Development Plan (NDPIII) 2020/21 to 2024/25 and NDPIV.

1.Water Resource Management• Water harvesting has critical gender implications for homes and the

environment. The Physical Planning Guidelines could include a provision for each household to have options for water harvesting and a certain area within the homes to be kept green.

• The Disaster Management Department under the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM) should be part of this programme in order to harness the synergies needed to support areas facing disasters because of flooding.

2. Environment and Natural Resources There is a need for action to address the pollution of water bodies.

3. Land Management• The current land laws should be reviewed – there is also a need to identify the

causes of land wrangles in areas where title ownership is rampant. • The Succession Act is not clear on land inheritance.• There should be land offices in all cities such that individuals can easily access

land registration services, but there should be a Fund to ease registration for low-income earners.
