UN baffled as endowed Uganda fails to beat hunger

UN baffled as endowed Uganda fails to beat hunger December 11, 2020 Children receiving food aid in Karamoja recently United Nations agencies are baffled as to why hunger and undernutrition still remain a challenge in Uganda despite enormous opportunities and abundant resources in the country.   Uganda is one of the countries that were expected to end hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition, and promote sustainable agriculture by 2030 as outlined in Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) number two. But since 2015, there seems to be no progress, despite a slight increase in agricultural output, according to the UN. Uganda boasts of almost half (47 per cent) of all the arable land in East Africa, giving it a huge agricultural competitive advantage in the region and Africa. But like much of the continent, it has not progressed, and the World Bank and UN attribute this to a lack of investment and financing to take subsistence farming to a larger scale.
