Diplomatic relations between Uganda and Norway were established on 21.07.1964. Uganda became one of the first main partners for Norwegian development cooperation at the time. Diplomatic relations between the two countries were severed in 1973, during Idi Amin’s rule. They were re-established in the latter half of the 1980’s, when the political situation in Uganda changed. Since 1996, Norway has had an ambassador resident in Kampala. The embassy is located in Nakasero. The Norwegian Ambassador to Uganda is also accredited to Rwanda and Burundi.

The objective of Norway’s development policy is to fight poverty and bring about social justice. In its budget for 2009, the Government achieved its target of allocating 1 percent of gross national income (GNI) to international development. This budget post has been increased by NOK 3.9 billion and totals NOK 26.2 billion for this year. The Government will continue to focus its efforts on priority areas where Norway can make the greatest contribution: the environment and sustainable development; peacebuilding, human rights and humanitarian assistance; oil and clean energy; women and gender equality; good governance and the fight against corruption; and efforts to reach the health-related Millennium Development Goals. Norway places particular emphasis on efforts to fight climate change and deforestation. Our funding for education will increase by NOK 115 million, for women and gender equality by NOK 65 million, and for clean energy by NOK 200 million.
