Uganda

The Uganda Nile Discourse Forum (UNDF) was launched in 2003 to support civil society participation in the developments in the Nile Basin. UNDF aims at promoting dialogue on sustainable and equitable development, peace and mutual understanding on development issues on the Nile Basin. UNDF also aims at achieving various objectives including civil society support and advocacy.

In May 2006, the UNDF established its office at the Uganda Wildlife Society (UWS) and it is now fully operational. Their website has recently been launched and contains up-to-date news from the Ugandan NDF activities. Please visit it at www.undf.or.ug.
