The Executive Director of Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA), Sharifah Buzeki, has witnessed firsthand the positive impact of the Parish Development Model (PDM) funding on communities in Kampala.

During a visit to beneficiaries in Komamboga, Kawempe Division, Kisasi Market, Luzira Prison Parish, and Mutungo Parish in Nakawa Division, Buzeki saw the success stories of individuals who have utilized the funding to increase their income.

"The success stories from the beneficiaries are a clear testimony that for those who used the funding for its intended purpose, their income increased," Buzeki said.

"The government remains committed to empowering communities through the Parish Development Model to improve household income."

The PDM is a government initiative aimed at improving the socio-economic well-being of Ugandans by providing funding and support to parishes across the country. The model seeks to empower communities to take charge of their development and improve their livelihoods.

Buzeki's visit to the beneficiaries highlighted the positive impact of the PDM funding on the lives of ordinary Ugandans.

The beneficiaries shared their stories of how the funding had helped them to start or expand their businesses, increase their income, and improve their living standards.

The KCCA Executive Director's visit is a testament to the government's commitment to empowering communities and improving the lives of Ugandans.

As the PDM continues to roll out across the country, it is expected to have a significant impact on the socio-economic development of communities, particularly in urban areas like Kampala.
