New USAID plan seeks to address Uganda’s food insecurity

The United States, through its Feed the Future project, has launched a new Uganda food security strategic plan amid famine and hunger concerns in some parts of the country.

The new Global Food Security Strategy County Plan and Results Framework for fiscal years 2023 to 2027 uses a broader food systems approach in efforts to reduce global poverty, hunger, and malnutrition.

This country plan, which provides a framework for U.S food security and nutrition programming in 42 districts, was launched at Sunrise Agro Processing and Farming Ltd, Lira City, on Wednesday.
