Uganda : The First Urban Project
The project's original objectives were to: a) improve living conditions and alleviate poverty in Kampala; b) improve urban financial management; and 3) strengthen institutional capacity. As part of the mid-term restructuring, monitor modifications were made to these objectives: 1) strengthen the Kampala City Council's (KCC) ability to better deliver, finance, and maintain basic urban services for all Kampala residents, particularly the poor; 2) assist KCC in getting demonstratable physical improvements on the ground aimed at gaining credibility with the people it serves; and 3) strengthen the institutional capacity of sector institutions. The Note discusses the impact on the ground and the lessons learned from implementing the project.

urban services for all Kampala residents, particularly the
poor; 2) assist KCC in getting demonstratable physical
improvements on the ground aimed at gaining credibility with
the people it serves; and 3) strengthen the institutional
capacity of sector institutions. The Note discusses the
