Hazards covered by anticipation

  • Drought / dry spell
  • Flood

The main hazards affecting people in Uganda vary by region. Drought is prevalent in the north-east and central regions, while floods affect those in the centre and the east, and along its major rivers. Other hazards include earthquakes, epidemics, landslides and mudslides. 

One of the first countries to pilot anticipatory action back in 2015, this approach is now well established within the country. Several partners have acted ahead of different hazards in recent years, and the country has held national-level dialogue platforms to advance this approach.
