The food security situation in Uganda deteriorated in 2024, driven by recurring climatic shocks and an ongoing influx of refugees from neighboring countries due to conflicts. Funding shortfalls led to the lowest food rations for refugees in the region, further straining humanitarian efforts. WFP assisted over 2 million people, including 1.39 million refugees, through food and cash-based transfers. The scale-up of cash assistance improved cost efficiency, while the Self-Reliance Model started transitioning refugees towards self-sustenance. WFP strengthened national systems by advancing Uganda’s school feeding policy, enhancing social protection frameworks, and developing anticipatory action plans to mitigate impacts of climatic shocks.
