USMID means business - New roads, and markets transform lives in refugee hosting districts

Although the project was meant for support to Municipalities and Cities, the Additional Funding phase of USMID received a grant, to be extended to the districts hosting large number of refugees. In the West Nile Sub region of Northern Uganda, Eight Districts of Obongi, Madi-Okollo, Terego, Arua, Adjumani, Yumbe, Moyo, and Lamwo have benefited from the program. Of the $360m USMID Additional Financing for the five years, $60m (about sh235b) was an envelope for then 11 refugee hosting districts $25m (about sh98b) of which was a grant, and the rest a credit.
