CALL FOR PROPOSALS
Urban forest management, tree planting and open space management intervention in Kasese municipality is a joint partnership between Kasese Municipality, Expertise France under the Covenant of Mayors in Sub-Saharan Africa (CoM SSA) initiative to make cities in Sub Saharan Africa resilient in the fight against climate change and ensuring access to clean energy. Under CoM SSA, local authorities make a voluntary political commitment to implement climate and energy actions in their communities and agree on a long-term vision to tackle 3 pillars, namely access to sustainable energy, climate mitigation and climate adaptation.
Cognisant of this, Kasese municipality developed its Sustainable Energy Access and Climate Action Plan (SEACAP) that was approved by the Municipal council in 2021. Wetland management intervention is part of the priority actions for the SEACAP implementation.
The CoM SSA initiative is made up of three actions:
§ Supporting the design, the implementation and the SEACAP assessment
§ Supporting investments in sustainable energy and climate
§ Supporting cooperation and twinning activities between municipalities at different levels (National, regional, international)
Its against this background that Expertise France is seeking for proposals from competent Consultants/firms in Uganda to;
- Develop an inventory of wetlands for Kasese Municipality, survey, demarcate their boundaries, develop a wetland management action plan with practical implementation strategy and build local capacity in participatory community based restoration of degraded wetlands.
- Conduct a land cover and land use mapping for Kasese Municipality with focus on forest cover, develop an urban forest management action plan and practical implementation strategy and build local capacity in GIS and urban forest management.

Kasese District Local Government is proud to present this five-year Local Action Plan (LAP), 2020/2021-2024-2025 on the implementation of United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1325. The development of the LAP has undergone several stages, from capacity building workshops, reviews by COACT and the district team, validation workshop and presentation to District Council for approval. This is a milestone in the sustenance of effort to prevent conflict and Gender Based Violence (GBV) in Kasese district.
The LAP is aligned to the District Development Plan and the National Development Plan and addresses current and emerging conflict issues including climate change and environment disasters, land disputes, ethnic and cultural issues, women’s participation in peacebuilding processes and GBV.
GBV and conflict are not new phenomena to the people of Kasese District and Uganda as a whole. Kasese has had and witnessed violent conflicts over the years but GBV is unique and needs immediate preventive measures since it touches the function of the family thus our everyday livelihoods.
Therefore, the LAP was developed at a time when Kasese district is considering community action as an alternative measure of dispute resolution thus the need to manage and prevent conflicts at community and family levels. We shall ensure a conflict sensitive environment and social cohesion as we promote e peaceful co-existence amongst the people of Kasese district.
We are grateful to the Ministry of Gender, Labour and Social Development (MGLSD), Norwegian Embassy, UN Women, Coalition for Action on 1325 (CoACT) and Rwenzori Consortium for Civic Competence (RWECO) who supported us financially and technically through the entire LAP development process. We appreciate the District Local Action Plan Taskforce that worked tirelessly to make this plan a reality.
As a district, we continue to pledge our commitment to promote peace and security in Kasese for sustainable development.

- Any patient discharge from treatment center for Home based care.
All community members are asked to adhere to this new COVID-19 Care model and stop harassing COVID-19 Positive cases under Home Based Care.
In addition to the above, the District Task force has noticed that community members are not observing the Standard Operating procedures and guidelines for COVID-19 Prevention and Control and therefore calls upon the community to adhere to the following guidelines:

The District Budget 2020/21
A total of Ushs. 86,410,621,000 has been projected as total revenue for the FY 2020/21 compared to Ushs. 74,008,326,000 during
the FY 2019/20 representing a 16.8% increase in the revenue forecast. The district has projected to raise Ushs 5,277,935,000 from
locally generated sources compared to Ushs. 1,620,462,000 during the FY 2019/20 representing an increase of 225.7%. The
increment is mainly as a result of re-adjustments in projections in local revenue sources such as loyalties, inspection fees, property
related duties and LST. Central government transfers will increase by 13.1% in the FY 2020/21 compared to the FY 2019/20. The
projected Good performance during the FY is attributed to 1) increase in wage allocations in Education, Health and Production
sectors, 2) increase in pension, gratuity and pension arrears, 3) increased funding under in development mainly in Roads, Health,
Production and Education UGFIT for construction of Seed Schools, Increase in non-wage allocation to Education mainly for
maintenance of school infrastructure & capacity building of education stakeholders, additional grants to cater for recurrent costs,
and payment of LCs ex-gratia, and honoraria for councilors. Donor support is projected to reduce by 1.4% majorly due to reduced
commitment of Baylor towards Results Based Financing and DGF due to uncertainties surrounding the global pandemic of COVID
19 towards accountability related interventions across the district.
