The 'Study and Expertise Fund-Uganda' (SEF-Uganda) is a flexible and useful instrument to rapidly respond to information and expertise needs in the wider framework of the Belgian-Ugandan development priorities. The main objective is to improve service delivery of Ugandan Institutes and Organisations.

This project will support the ongoing sectoral projects to implement innovative initiatives and mainstream the cross-cutting themes including gender, gender-based violence, environment, climate change, digitalisation and social inclusion within their activities.

In addition, the analytical studies will be helpful in the preparation of the future Country Portfolio to tailor the projects within the government of Uganda to the Belgium development policy priorities. Studies to be conducted will provide relevant strategic level information and support, adapted to the context, to feed the decisions to be taken in relation to strategic choices for the new portfolio.
