Health sector still underfunded despite UGX 5.87 trillion allocation – Experts
The government allocated about 5.87 trillion shillings to the health sector for the financial year 2025/26, but experts say the sector remains underfunded. They note that the budget fails to address recent donor funding cuts, especially from the U.S., and leaves many critical health priorities unfunded. However, as Nobert Atukunda reports, even the available funds are not being utilized efficiently.
