1.0 Introduction
KIDDP is a medium term development framework specifically tailored to address the unique context and development challenges in Karamoja region. The
overall goal of the KIDDP is “to contribute to human security and promote conditions for recovery and development in Karamoja”. KIDDP takes cognizance of
the National Development Plan and the Peace, Recovery and Development Programme (PRDP)
The KIDDP harmonizes the various development interventions by Government, bi- lateral and multi- lateral development partners, international and national
NGOs and CBOs. It therefore represents an attempt by the Government of Uganda to integrate gun collection (Disarmament) with development interventions;
conflict management and peace building. Hence, using development to achieve peace.
The Office of the Prime Minister is coordinating the process of revising and developing this KIDDP results matrix for a five year period 2011-2015 that would be
used to track and monitor various development interventions in Karamoja region.
The result matrix below gives a detailed account of intervention gaps per sector that need to be addressed and implemented over a five year period in order to
achieve the overall goal.

2.0 EDUCATION SECTOR
Despite the existence of the Universal Primary Education [UPE], Functional Adult Literacy (FAL) and the Universal Secondary Education [USE], Karamoja
continues to record the lowest literacy levels of 12%. The above scenario is aggravated by a complexity of factors that include the traditional agro – pastoral
lifestyle that requires the labour of young boys and girls as herders; high levels of poverty and negative perceptions to education by the parents. UPE and USE.
Besides, there is a high failure rate in the existing schools due to poor quality of education and this phenomenon discourages the few parents who attempt to
take their children to school.
The results matrix below identifies the existing Many parishes and sub counties in Karamoja lack both primary and secondary schools contrary to the
government policy of gaps in the education sector that need to be addressed so as to increase the quality and access to education in Karamoja.

3.0 The Agriculture sector.
3.1 Background.
The Karamoja sub-region has one of the most fertile soils in Uganda but it has one rainy season, failure of which results into serious food security implications.
While the sub-region receives rainfall ranging between 500mm to 700mm per annum, reducing from the wet belt in the west to the eastern zone bordering
Kenya, it has experienced crop failure for the last three consecutive years.
Karamoja – has experienced an increase in natural disasters, reflecting in part the impact of climate change. This has undermined the livelihoods of the agro
pastoral populations in this semi-arid region. Severe droughts have decreased household crop production, while also diminishing the pasture available for
livestock. Unless urgent intervention is done, there is a danger that the process could precipitate a more intense conflict, leading to displacements and
compounding any food-insecurity crises arising from natural disasters. Given the erosion of coping capacities over time, it is projected that future disasters will
lead to even greater food needs.
Generally, the consequences of hunger are dire. Households ration meals, sell critical livelihood assets, do odd jobs, increased unsafe sexual practices leading
to higher incidences of HIV/AIDS and other STDs, teenage pregnancies, abortions, increased gender and theft related violence and a drop in school
attendance, ultimately having a huge negative impact on economic development. The situation is particularly critical for children. Mothers travel extreme
distances to find meager work in exchange for some kind of food, leaving children behind who, in some cases, are fending for themselves. Children are being
pulled from or have refused to go to school due to hunger, the sick are not being treated and parents are forced to beg just for something to feed their children.
The interventions are therefore meant to speed-up the recovery of food security in the sub-reg

4.0. Water sector.
4.1 Background.
The water and sanitation services in Karamoja are lagging behind the national average, although the coverage continues to improve. Water coverage ranges
from 26.4% in Kaabong, 45% in Kotido, 74% in Abim, 68.9% in Moroto and 56% in Nakapiripirit, as compared to 65% in 2009 nationally.
The household latrine coverage is less than 10% on average, compared to the national average of over 68% in 2009. The low functionality of the Water and
Sanitation Committees and water sources farther reduces the effective access to services.
Hepatitis E invaded the Districts of Karamoja from September 2009. The response has been challenging due to the low water and sanitation services and poor
funding. Since 21st April 2010, there has been cholera outbreak in Moroto District, with 127 cases by 12th May 2010, including 4 deaths. The disadvantages of
poor services and funding continue to provide a challenge to the containment and elimination of Cholera and Hepatitis E. Non-functionality of installed facilities
is an issue that needs to be addressed urgently.

5.0 Health Sector.
5.1 Background.
Karamoja region has the poorest health indicators in the country. About 100 children below five years die each week from preventable illnesses. Only 3.4 % of
households in Karamoja have two insecticide-treated bed nets and 5.9% have one, yet the regional target is 60% of households with two nets. The region is
"off-track in meeting health and nutrition-related Millennium Development Goals and is the worst place to be a child, with highly elevated levels of early
childhood mortality and morbidity”.
The above situation is attributed to low access and utilisation of basic health services - averaging 24% compared with the national rate of 72%. The situation is
compounded by lack of awareness among local communities. Maternal mortality is at 750 per 100,000 live births – 50% higher than Uganda's national average.
According to a joint report by UNICEF and the Government of Uganda, Karamoja is a complex developmental challenge, currently manifesting as a child
survival crisis that needs accelerated actions to reduce child mortality and mitigate the impact of political and climatic shocks on women and children.

6.0. Road sector.
6.1 Background.
Karamoja has one of the poorest roads in the country. All the districts are connected through gravel murram roads which are periodically washed by seasonal
rains, hence rendering the region in accessible. The above scenario has hampered effective delivery of social services and economic activities in the region.

8.0. Coordination, Community Mobilisation, and Peace building.
8.1 Background.
The conflict in the Karamoja Sub region particularly springs from the necessity for the various ethnic groups therein to have access to the sparse and
patchy dry land resources. Maintaining the pastoralists’ way of life requires constant negotiations as groups move around to try to ensure adequate pasture
and water for their animals. The common property tenure systems for such access require a high degree to inter-group cooperation. When cooperation is not
extended, the group is forced to gain such access by force. All those conditions presuppose a need for a mechanism to ensure that suffering and the different
conflicts people find themselves in are mitigated to a level that does not have adverse effects on people’s lives. A lot of activities can be engaged in. however,
sensitization is instrumental in providing long term recommendations.
Coordination and Community Mobilization provides a valuable opportunity for small communities of people with diverse perspectives to engage in rich
discussions about a topic of common interest that may help mitigate suffering. Interventions can focus on research or applied topics. Innovative, controversial,
or highly-practical topics have opportunity to be deliberated on. Interaction among people is important, so the people of Karamoja must have informed
positions based on prior experience.
The KIDDP is one of such initiatives engaged in providing Peace building strategies. Its overall development goal is to promote peace and reconciliation in
conflict areas and areas emerging from conflict. Therefore the Conflict Resolution and Peace Building training workshops held in Arua and Soroti addressed
specific objectives related to that goal. Peace building has to be done by the actors within a conflict themselves but there is a vast practice of interventions
from the outside to support peace building.

9.0 Establish Law and Order IN Karamoja
The formal justice systems have been largely ineffective in Karamoja due to the challenges posed by ‘significant structural, financial and logistical constraints
and insecurity due to armed conflicts’. In this context the majority of Karamojong who live outside towns (almost 95%) rely on traditional systems. in the current
situation the justice needs of the Karamojong are not adequately served by either the formal or traditional systems. In particular there are concerns that some of
the traditional rulings ‘bordered on criminality’ as they are contrary to the fundamental principles of the laws of Uganda.
The Karamojong communities are generally closed to outsiders, making the job of the police in the region particularly difficult. Misunderstandings regarding or
resistance to, the role of the police also present problems. Local people apparently lose faith in the formal system when a suspect is released on police bond or
a suspect is acquitted. It should be noted that with a 2008 police-to-population ratio of 1:7,220 in the districts of Moroto, Nakapiripirit and Kotido, compared to a
national average ratio of 1:1,866, Karamoja is the worst-served region in Uganda in terms of policing.

11.0 Provide and Ensure Adequate Security for the People of Karamoja
11.1 Background
Cross-Border raids in the four countries of Ethiopia, Kenya, Sudan and Uganda backed with SALWs have complicated cattle rustling. While a lot has been
done by Government to contain the situation in Karamoja leading to a general improvement in the security situation and restoration of law and order, the factors
that drive continuation of the conflict such as refusal to disarm, criminality need to be addressed in a more comprehensive and holistic manner.
The lessons learned by the Defence and Security Sector point to the need for simultaneous disarmament by all the four affected countries. This is because
of the following challenges.
1) Cross-Border migration of armed pastoralists
2) Inability to fully contain international trafficking in SALWs.
3) Inadequate political will by some states to undertake simultaneous disarmament.
4) Inadequate and un-coordinated participation of Regional Inter-Government initiatives such as IGAD, EAC, ICGLR
5) Public awareness and sensitization.
The matrix below highlights key non combat/non military gaps in the Defence and Security Sector which need to be tackled to enhance gun collection and peace
building in the Karamoja Region to bring on board all the four countries alluded to above. The biggest challenge thus far is lack of resources for these non
combat activities.
