Our study indicates that Covid-19 is not just a public health issue but a multidimensional problem. Listen to one of the respondents on how lockdown affected them. #MSMERecovery @EBirabwa @ikasirye_ug @EBirabwa
We are seeing a significant decline in markets and anywhere between 60% to 20% depending on the sectors that these manufacturers are engaged in, which is very significant. - Daniel Birungi (Executive Director at Uganda Manufacturers Association) #MSMERecovery
Yes COVID-19 has been a disaster but the message we wish to communicate as Makerere University is that there is hope and 'necessity is the mother of innovation' - Prof Juluis Kiiza #MSMERecovery
One secretary to a local council in Kigwanya told us that many vulnerable people have no phones and that many of them don't have NIN numbers because they are not registered yet the requirement for the COVID relief was NIN. - DFrancis Mwesigye #MSMERecovery
@FrancMwesigye: "coping mechanism is diversification. Many vendors moved away from selling perishables like yellow bananas, avocado to the fewer perishables like green bananas even if they are still agric products" #MSMErecovery
We realized that when the lockdown hit, the physical interaction was reduced significantly and most people went digital. Most businesses that had switched to digital to maintain their customers suffered when the tax on data was imposed. - Dr. Francis Mwesigye #MSMERecovery
@FrancMwesigye: "Prioritization also came out strongly. Take an example of revenue collection vs livelihood. Many petrol stations reported that the tax on fuel added recently had a far-reaching impact especially during this time of lockdown #MSMErecovery
When you close Kikubo, you affect all the actors that supply or depend on Kikubo for survival. This tells us that any measure that targets the any of the player has effects on the macro level and not only to that specific player. - Dr. Francis Mwesigye #MSMERecovery
@FrancMwesigye: " During the rapid assessment that @eprc undertook, many vendors told us they had supplied schools and had not been paid. This meant traders could not get their capital back" #MSMErecovery
We have to enter the new digital spaces, leverage technologies and succeed in the hard times. - Prof Juluis Kiiza #MSMERecovery
@FrancMwesigye: "For instance, when you close a school, it is interdependent on very many other actors around it e.g., suppliers of stationery, financial institutions that give schools loans, the transporters, the food market." #MSMErecovery
@FrancMwesigye: "What we have learned with this pandemic is that it has exposed the interlinkages between sectors. The closure of any small business is disastrous to other related small businesses."#MSMErecovery #Uganda

Prof Kiiza: We learned that #covid-19 is not a simple public health crisis. It’s a multidimensional and complex problem that has serious social, political, psychological, cultural, and even religious dimensions #MSMErecovery
Prof Kiiza: "The issue of management and leadership is extremely important (whether at the national level but here we’re talking about the firm or enterprise level). It makes a difference when you have a leadership that is in full charge" #MSMErcovery #Uganda
The main objective of this virtual conference is basically to share our findings from a rapid assessment that was done during the second lockdown but this was done in greater Kampala given the mobility restrictions . - Sarah Ssewanyana #MSMERecovery
Prof Julius Kiiza on key pointers in our study:
“Resilience-building is multidimensional thus several things must be taken into consideration, the first being preparedness. We need to be proactive than wait for a crisis and engage the reactive gear” #MSMErecovery
The second lockdown came at a time when we were still adapting to the new normal after the first lockdown in 2020 but we also know these MSMes were struggling before COVID-19 in terms of finances. - Sarah Ssewanyana #MSMERecovery
The most challenging part of mitigating the impact of the pandemic is a striking a balance between and across saving lives as well as preserving livelihoods. - Sarah Ssewanyana (Executive Director of the Economic Policy Research Centre. ) #MSMERecovery
