Abstract
The project's original objectives
were to: a) improve living conditions and alleviate poverty
in Kampala; b) improve urban financial management; and 3)
strengthen institutional capacity. As part of the mid-term
restructuring, monitor modifications were made to these
objectives: 1) strengthen the Kampala City Council's
(KCC) ability to better deliver, finance, and maintain basic
urban services for all Kampala residents, particularly the
poor; 2) assist KCC in getting demonstratable physical
improvements on the ground aimed at gaining credibility with
the people it serves; and 3) strengthen the institutional
capacity of sector institutions. The Note discusses the
impact on the ground and the lessons learned from
implementing the project.
