The LKH Ending Hunger project was established in 2022 to alleviate
food scarcity in underprivileged regions of Uganda.
According to the Global Hunger Index, agriculture plays a crucial
role in Uganda’s economy, with 68% of Ugandans employed
in agriculture and 25% of GDP coming from this sector.
Despite Uganda’s abundant biodiversity, numerous freshwater lakes
with irrigation potential, and two rainy seasons per year, agriculture in
Uganda faces challenges such as droughts, diseases, and pests.
The 2022 Global Hunger Index classifies food insecurity in Uganda
as “serious,” with widespread malnutrition affecting 29% of children
under the age of five.
