Over the past five years, two of them during a pandemic, the ROOTs Campaign has united schools, cultural and religious institutions, local governments, businesses and citizens around a common purpose. Together, we have planted more than 82 million tree seedlings in over 130 different species, proving that when Ugandans work together, remarkable transformation is possible, embracing one tree at a time.

During the forecast period, most areas of the country are expected to continue experiencing dry conditions apart from a few parts of western sector that are likely to receive light isolated rains.

MINISTERIAL POLICY STATEMENT FY2026/2027

The river flows during MAM 2026 varied across basins. In Victoria and Kyoga basins, flow was Above normal to below-normal ranges in different rivers. The Water levels on major lakes (Victoria, Kyoga and Albert) remained high than the long term mean, indicating much above normal conditions during the March - May (MAM)2026 season. For groundwater levels analyzed from the stations of Maracha, Bugondo, Bugolobi and Ntungamo, the levels were generally normal indicating stable storage during MAM 2026. Meanwhile the June-August 2026 National outlook indicate that, most parts of the country are expected to receive near normal to below normal (near average to below average) rainfall, drier than normal conditions expected in Southwestern, and temperatures are expected to be warmer than average. The climate outlook further indicates high chances of El Niño conditions in SOND 2026, and this is expected to influence regional weather patterns by; suppressing rainfall and increasing temperatures across East Africa during the JJA season, enhancing rainfall and increasing flood risk during the September–December 2026 rainfall season.
