PROGRESS AND ACHIEVEMENTS IN CLIMATE FINANCE:
Uganda recently launched five key strategies and reports to operationalize its climate change framework.

✅️National Climate Finance Strategy (NCFS) (2025-2030): The Strategy aims at accelerating Uganda’s transition to a low-carbon, climate resilient economy by enhancing good governance, accountability and multi-stakeholder engagement.

✅️National Green Taxonomy (NGT): This was developed to guide investments toward climate-related activities and align them with national priorities while preventing greenwashing.

✅️Country Climate and Development Report (CCDR): The CCDR captures the interplay between Uganda’s development goals (Vision 2040) and climate change, in the context of its commitments to address climate change. CCDR provides evidence-based insights to guide policy and investment decisions that balance economic growth with climate action.

✅️Guidelines for Mainstreaming Climate Action in the Financial Sector of Uganda: The guidelines provide a framework for integrating climate considerations such as climate-resilient and low-carbon investments and climate-related financial risks into the policies, operations, and investment decisions of financial institutions.

✅️National Climate Finance Vehicle (NCFV): This is a strategic mechanism to mobilize, coordinate, and channel climate finance toward priority mitigation and adaptation actions in line with the country’s nationally determined contribution (NDC) and sustainable development goals.

Uganda has already received USD 100.8 million from the Green Climate Fund (GCF) to support over 13 projects, including USD 4.6 million for readiness support. Through collaboration with the Global Environment Facility (GEF) Uganda also secured USD 11.5 million for projects in low-carbon and climate-resilient livestock, energy, water, sanitation, and rural community resilience.

Today, I moderated the 1st ever National Private Sector Engagement Forum on unlocking Climate Finance for the Private Sector .facilitated by @mofpedU. The private sector is ready—but needs policy certainty, affordable capital, & stronger public-private collaboration to thrive.

[Ministry of Finance @mofpedU]

CLIMATE FINANCE ENGAGEMENT:
Officiating at the inaugural National Private Sector Engagement Forum on Climate change today, State Minister for Planning, Amos Lugoloobi,urged all stakeholders to collectively explore ways of unlocking green investment opportunities, building
bankable climate projects, and forging new alliances that will drive sustainable growth.

He said Uganda is a proud signatory to the Paris
Agreement where developing countries collectively
committed to mobilise USD 100 billion annually for climate action—a target that has now been revised under the New Collective Quantified Goal (NCQG) to USD 300 billion by 2035.

"We are all aware of the global reductions in official development assistance
and the resulting decline in climate finance flows," said the Minister adding that Uganda views these challenges as an opportunity to strengthen Uganda's resilience and foster innovation.

Lugoloobi said Government remains committed to creating an enabling environment for private sector investment through regulatory certainty,
incentives, and strategic partnerships.

The PSST @rggoobi in his remarks delivered by the Director Public Private Partnerships (PPPs), Jim Mugunga said as Uganda confronts the complex and growing challenges of climate change, mobilizing effective and scalable climate finance has become a cornerstone of
the national strategy for sustainable development.

He said this inaugural Forum, held under the theme “Advancing Private Sector Leadership in Climate Finance Mobilisation,” marks a pivotal first step towards
developing a structured National Private Sector Engagement Framework and also reflects Uganda's strong recognition of the private sector as a vital engine for
unlocking investment, driving innovation, and accelerating Uganda’s transition to a low-carbon, climate-resilient economy.

Uganda plans to invest $28.1B in climate action by 2030, yet faces a huge climate finance gap & low private sector participation.

The 1st National Private Sector Engagement Forum on Climate Finance is here to unlock private capital to bridge the gap & lead climate solutions.
