The theme of the NSEOR 2018/19 is “Managing the Environment for Climate Resilient Livelihoods and Sustainable Economic Development” and it elaborates how the state of the environment is closely linked to the quality and productivity of several sectors in Uganda and it is a key determinant of their performance. The environment provides resources to the economy and acts as a sink for emissions and waste. Poor environmental quality in turn affects economic growth and wellbeing by lowering the quantity and quality of resources or through impacts to health. Part 1 provides an overview of the environment; Part 2 focuses on Biodiversity and Part 3 focuses on policies and responses.
