Cannot find a better moment than #InternationalEducationDay to announce a new partnership with @IcelandinUganda to green 🌳 ☀️schools📚📝 in Karamoja

Looking forward to our continued journey for children in #Uganda

[World Food Programme @WFP]

Uganda’s refugee response is severely underfunded, forcing WFP to support only the most vulnerable with food assistance.

Without immediate intervention to help build sustainable, safe, and dignified livelihoods, 82% of #refugees are at risk of food and nutritional security.
