Alignment

Uganda’s NDP IV and the SDGs.

Programme alignment is used as a planning discipline: each project should connect to the national development agenda and only those SDGs it can genuinely contribute to.

NDP IV programme alignment

Relevant TEA work aligns principally with Agro-Industrialisation, Human Capital Development, Private Sector Development, Governance and Security, Public Sector Transformation, Innovation and Technology Transfer, and Natural Resources, Environment, Climate Change, Land and Water Management.

Primary SDG contribution

TEA’s strongest recurring alignment includes SDGs 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 13, 16 and 17, with additional project-specific relevance to SDGs 5, 10, 11, 12, 14 and 15.
