UWEWK 2021 WELCOMES YOU



UGANDA WATER AND ENVIROMENT WEEK (UWEWK) 2021


OVERVIEW Uganda Water and Environment Week (UWEWK) is a weeklong event that is organized annually by Ministry of Water and Environment (MWE) through the Water Resources Institute (WRI). Since its inception in 2018, the event seeks to contribute towards the attainment of Sustainable Socio-economic Transformation and achieving Ugandan National Development Plan and vision 2040. It provides an interface between sector actors and other stakeholders for knowledge exchange, dialoguing, learning for improvement of Uganda’s water and environment resources. This year UWEWK2021 will explore the role water and environment resources will be play in: i. Increasing investment in value addition to environment and natural resources products and services, ii. Promoting natural resource accounting, to improve the national income measurement, iii. Promoting research, innovation and adoption of green appropriate technology to foster sustainable use and management of water and environment resources and iv. Reducing human and economic loss from natural hazards and disasters.

The UWEWK 2021 is intrinsically linked to: NPDIII which focuses on enhancing value addition in key growth opportunities; reduce environmental degradation and the adverse effects of climate change as well as improve utilization of natural resources for sustainable economic growth and livelihood security.

The overall theme of UWEWK 2021 is “Water and Environment security for socio-economic transformation of Uganda”. Under the major theme, the following sub-themes are proposed to elaborate on value of water and environment security in transforming Uganda’s economy and improved livelihood for socio-economic development.

Details of the sub-themes are as follows:

a) Valuing Water and Environment resources for socio-economic transformation of UgandaThe sub-theme will focus on sustainable use and value addition to water resources, forests, wetlands rangelandsand other natural resources for increased incomes and employment. It will highlight the importance of raisingawareness on the value of water, environment and natural resources in transforming the socio-economic status of Ugandan population and improve livelihood. The sub-theme will also focus on increasing investment in “value addition’ to environment and natural resources products and services, promoting natural resource accounting to improve the national income measurement and marketing of the products using creative economy approach.

b) Water and Environment in a creative economy

This sub-theme will focus to innovative solutions for more efficient and productive development and management of water, environment and natural resources for sustainable socio-economic transformation of Ugandan population to the mid-class citizens. It will further look at the current position of creative industries in Uganda with a perspective to identify key issues to help the government to form a strategic plan of action aiming at building a strong premise for building its creative economy for employment, trade and development gains. Furthermore, it will look into ensuring coordinated and sustainable national infrastructure projects considering that Uganda’s economy relies almost entirely on the stock of water, environmental and natural resources to produce goods and deliver services. It will also address the new approaches to achieving Water-Food-Energy nexus as well as approaches for addressing water scarcity through non-conventional water and



environment resources management approaches. Promoting of forest cluster-based wood processing industries and promoting of payment for ecosystem services, biodiversity offsets and benefit sharing arising from use ofbiological resources

c) Managing Water and Environmental shocks

This sub-theme will discuss how societies should manage and develop their water and environment resources to address risks associated with climate change at the same time improving people’s livelihood. The sub-theme will also focus on the role of research, innovation and adoption of green appropriate technology to foster sustainable use and management of water and environment resources and reduce human and economic loss fromnatural hazards and disasters.

d) Water and Environment security for smart urban growth

This sub-theme will focus on innovation within the urban setting that will involve appropriate technologies in terms of: i) environmental concerns (air pollution, water and soil contamination); ii) poverty reduction and employment generation; iii) economic sustainability (cost benefit, short to long term) and iv) environmental sustainability (resource savings and reclamation, reduction in greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions) among others. Making urban excreta and wastewater management contribute to cities’ economic development and research opportunities for linking sanitation infrastructure design and planning to business opportunities.

Overall Goal The overall goal of UWEWK 2021 is improved understanding of the centrality and value of water and environment resources for transforming Ugandan’s economy and improved livelihood.

Objectives

The objectives of UWEWK 2021 are to: a. Highlight value of water and environment resources for socio-economic transformation of Uganda.

b. Deliberate on the role of water and environment resources in maintaining security, peace, public health and sustainable urban growth and improved livelihoods.
