Localisation Evidence Brief: Strengthening localisation in Uganda’s refugee response

Report

Original Resource

Authors	U-Learn Uganda
Description	The Localisation Evidence Brief was developed to support more locally-led humanitarian action in Uganda’s refugee response. It captures learning from across Uganda’s localisation landscape drawing on consultations with district and national actors, refugee-led organisations, government agencies, INGOs, and coordination platforms such as the CRRF, Refugee Engagement Forum (REF), and Humanitarian Platform for Local and National Organisations in Uganda. It showcases good practices and persistent challenges, including the limited access many local organisations especially refugee-led ones have to direct funding and coordination spaces, and the barriers they face in navigating complex registration and compliance processes.
