The government of Uganda, represented by the office of the prime minister has received financing from the World Bank towards the cost of the second Northern Uganda Social Action (NUSAF2) project. The permanent secretary of the prime minister’s office Pius Birigimana says that the government intends to apply part of the proceeds for the consultant services for carrying out annual tracking studies under the public works programme (PWP) of NUSAF2 project.

He says that the activities are aimed at assessing how income earned through PWP impacted on the participants’ livelihoods, particularly on education, health, agriculture, water, sanitation, nutrition, and care for vulnerable people.

Pius says that the consultant shall carry out assessment in selected districts of Uganda that will be agreed upon by the prime minister’s office, prepare and submit the report of its findings as its major out put.
