3.3.2 Humanitarian assistance channelled through EU, UN and other multilateral
instruments
In addition to the above indicated project funding to Ios (see Table 4), Germany also
contributes to the CERF 68 and with core funding to some UN organisations that are also
active in Uganda (OCHA, UNCHR). This core funding can, however, not directly be attributed
to specific HA interventions in Uganda.
The German Government is also contributing to the humanitarian and reconstruction
measures of the EU with core funding (largely through DG ECHO). This contribution amounts
to about 20 per cent of the overall budget.
3.3.3 The intervention logic
Figure 2 (next page) presents the intervention logic of German humanitarian assistance in
Uganda, which was reconstructed by the evaluation team. Due to the complexity of the
crises, it covers a number of typical ‘fields of intervention’ of German funded HA (as
described in Chapter 3.3.1).
67 Financial and technical information provided by GTZ (August 2010), which is the implementing
partner in this partnership programme

bilateral donors of the CERF (62.64 million US Dollar out of a total amount of 1,955,59 million US
Dollar. This corresponds to 3.2 per cent of all contributions over the last five years (including 2010).
