When the government of President
Museveni assumed power in Uganda in 1986, it took over a
shattered postwar economy. Market-oriented reforms led to a
remarkable recovery. International Development Association
(IDA) operations in Uganda initially tackled economic
recovery, rehabilitation, and stabilization, then turned
slowly to institutional and private sector development as
the country stabilized. Since 1995, IDA has focused on
poverty reduction and social progress. An OED (Operations
Evaluation Department) assessment of IDA assistance to
Uganda during 1987-99 found that IDA has excelled at policy
dialogue, economic and sector work (ESW), and fostering
participatory processes; had signal success in mobilizing
resources and debt relief; and broadened the stakeholder
dialogue on aid coordination. There is room for improvement,
however, in some aspects of project implementation. The Bank
and other donors were involved on a very high plane in
Uganda, and important successes were achieved, partly
because of the government's strong political
leadership, its eagerness to learn from experience, its good
use of technical assistance in core government agencies, and
its recognition of the need to deepen its commitment and
broaden the ownership of reform. |
