USADF began programming in Uganda in 1992


Focus: Improving food security among the most marginalized populations by investing in agriculture, agro-processing, and other livelihood activities.

Conflict/Post Conflict:  Many regions in Uganda have suffered from successive civil wars, rebel activity and cattle rustling.  USADF grants focus on helping Ugandans living in post-conflict areas to increase their incomes, improve their household food security and create sustainable businesses. 

Marginalized:  USADF grants collaborate with underserved smallholder agricultural producers, small-scale agribusinesses and small and medium-sized enterprises in remote areas.  Each grant focuses on developing community groups to create tangible benefits such as increasing or sustaining the number of jobs in a community, improving income levels and addressing social development needs.
