Fresh water
Uganda has abandant fresh water resources including 36,527.4 sq.Km of open water bodies with large active storage capacity in the lakes including Victoria, Albert, Kyoga, George, Edward and major water rivers such as Nile,Muzizi, Semliki, Sezibwa,Kafu,Katonga, Kagera among others.
The abundant water provides an opportunity to tap water resources for Uganda's economic development.
The National development plan prioritises sufficient water as a vital input for Agriculture, Tourism and the Industrial sectors. However, Fresh water resources are being affected by the changing climate; pollution; over utilization; encroachment on wetlands, River banks and lake shores; poor managemnet of waste and industrial effluent among others.This therefore calls for innovation and sustainable management of these resources if they are to continue providing the economic, ecological and social services.
WWF-Uganda is currently promoting the preservation of priority water catchments in Uganda in order to sustain water quantity and quality and ecosysytem functions for sustainable livelihoods and production.
