Redressing the Balance

Families struggling with price increases

In Uganda, as with in the UK, all families are struggling with price increases. Abraham, our Coordinator says “The economy here has continued to bite really hard. This is partly due to the Russia-Ukraine war. Prices of basic commodities and rents have subsequently risen. For instance a kilo of beans which cost Shs. 2,200 in April is now at Shs. 4,000 while posho (cornflour) has gone up from Shs. 1,700 per kilo to Shs. 2,500.
