The government of Uganda wants to build better homes for people who live in poor areas around the country. They need more than one trillion shillings to make this happen. Judith Nabakooba, who helps run the country, shared these plans at a special meeting last week.

Mrs Nabakooba said they talked about new ways to help people have nice homes. She wants to ask for money next year to build these houses. The country needs many new homes because many people live in unsafe or uncomfortable places.

The plan will also help people who work for the government. Many teachers and other workers find it hard to live near their jobs because they cannot find good houses they can afford, which makes it hard for them to do their jobs well.

A man named Waggwa Nsibirwa runs a group that helps build homes for people. He thinks everyone should have a nice place to live. He said people sleep better and work better when they have good homes. His group helps people borrow money to buy houses by working with banks and water companies.

A government official named Sowed Ssewagudde wants to improve things even more. He says they need fourteen billion shillings to teach children how to swim and buy special boats to help people. They already have some money but need more to finish all their plans.

The government works with many groups to help make houses cheaper for everyone. They want all people in Uganda to have safe places to live, no matter how much money they make. It might take time, but they believe they can make it happen.
