FOREWORD
Demographic and socio-economic data are useful for planning and evidence-based decision
making in any country. Such data are collected through Population Censuses, Demographic
and Socio-economic Surveys, Civil Registration Systems and other Administrative sources. In
Uganda, however, the Population and Housing Census remains the main source of
demographic data, especially at the sub-national level.

Population Census taking in Uganda dates back to 1911 and since then the country has
undertaken five such Censuses. The most recent, the National Population and Housing Census
2014, was undertaken under the theme ‘Counting for Planning and Improved Service Delivery’.
The enumeration for the 2014 Census was conducted in August/September 2014. The Uganda
Bureau of Statistics (UBOS) worked closely with different Government Ministries, Departments
and Agencies (MDAs) as well as Local Governments (LGs) to undertake the census exercise.

The 2014 Census provides several statistics on different aspects of the population. These
include the population size and distribution which is a key indicator used for resource allocation,
measurement of the extent of service delivery, decision making and budgeting among others.
Other information includes the characteristics of the population, those of the dwellings they live
in and information on the Household based Agricultural activities.

On behalf of the Bureau, I would like to appreciate the Government of Uganda for providing the
necessary resources and infrastructure for undertaking the National Population and Housing
Census (NPHC) 2014. In addition, the Bureau would like to thank the Development Partners,
particularly United Kingdom Aid (UKAid), the United Nations Fund for Population Activities
(UNFPA) and the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) for providing technical and financial
support towards the Census. The Bureau would also like to thank the Media for creating
awareness about the Census 2014 and, most importantly, the individual households who
voluntarily provided the required information.
Together We Count

PREFACE
The Uganda Bureau of Statistics Act No. 12 of 1998 provides for the Minister responsible for
Planning to direct ‘that a Census be taken’ on any matter specified in the Act. This was the
legal basis for conducting the National Population and Housing Census (NPHC) 2014. The
long-term objective of the NPHC 2014 is to ensure availability of bench-mark demographic and
socio-economic data for use in planning, evidence based decision making, policy formulation
and programme evaluation.

In order to support the planning process, the results from the Census 2014 are being released
in phases as and when they become available. The Provisional Results Report was released in
November, 2014 followed by the Final Results which were released in March 2016 and the
Sub-county Reports in June 2016. These reports collectively provided information on the
characteristics of the population and households at the national, district and sub-county levels.

The Constituency Profiles Series presents the characteristics of the population and
household as well as the housing conditions of the population in each parliamentary
constituency of the district. For convenience, however, the profiles of all constituencies in one
district have been published in one report. In each report, the Appendix has selected national
level tables for reference.

Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS) is in the process of producing several other reports
including the National Analytical Results (Monograph Series), District-level Analytical Reports
and the Census Atlas. These will present detailed findings covering more indicators on different
thematic areas. In addition to the above reports, the Bureau will be providing electronic datasets
to facilitate deeper analysis of the data.

The Bureau, appeals to Policy Makers, Researchers and Academicians to make extensive use
of this information for policy analysis and evidence-based decision-making at different levels of
service delivery. Together we can harness information resources from the Census to improve
service delivery and create a better Uganda.

ABOUT THE INDICATORS

Household
A group of persons who usually eat and live together. A household may be comprised of one or
more persons provided they share the same meal and sleep under the same roof. The persons
may be related usually in a family setting or may not be related.

Household population
All those persons who were enumerated in households. It excludes population which was
enumerated on the streets (floating population) or those who were living in Institutions such as
correction centres, religious institutions and health facility in-patients.

Population size
Refers to the total population count in the country or any geographical location based on the
census reference night. It includes all those persons who were enumerated in households and
institutions.

Population by age groups or specific age

This is the total count of the household population by a given age, age- groups or special age-
groups. It excludes the non-household population.

Education characteristics/indicators
The indicators refer to specific age groups. The official school going age is 6-12 years for
primary education, 13-18 years for secondary education and 19-24 years for tertiary education.
However, the analysis includes the age-group 6-15 years to take into consideration those who
start primary level at more than 6 years.

For those who have never been to school, we consider the age group 15 years and above on
the assumption that by age 15, there are minimal chances for one joining school for the first
time.

Illiteracy
This is defined as lack of the ability to read and write with understanding in any language.
Persons aged 10 years and above who could not read and write responded (Codes 2, 3 and 4)
to Question P21 of the Household Questionnaire. The objective of using this indicator is to shed
light on the areas that need improvements in the delivery of the services.

Ownership of a birth certificate

Ownership includes all those persons (adults or children) who either had a Short Birth
Certificate or a Long Birth Certificate during census enumeration. The analysis is based on
specific age categories.

iii
National Population and Housing Census 2014 Area Specific Profiles – Moroto District

Parental survival and Orphanhood

Parental survival and orphanhood are derived variables which are based on two questions (P10
and P11), whether or not the biological mother/father of the respondent was still alive at the
time of the census. Orphans are persons below the age of 18 who have lost any or both of their
parents.

Disability
The questions P14 to P17 on functional difficulty are used to determine whether the person has
a disability or not. It includes all persons aged 2 years and above. An individual is considered to
be disabled if he/she has any one of the 4 questions with at least some difficulty.

Multiple disabilities refer to all persons who reported more than one functional difficulty.

Marriage and Child Bearing

Marital Status refers to all those persons who are living together and consider themselves as
married. It includes all forms of consensual union whether legal or non-legal, religious or
cultural or non-consensual union.

Employment
Questions on employment were eligible for all household population aged 10 years and above.
Currently the age category for the working population 16 -64 years. The analysis is based on
specific age groups of children 10-15 years, (other countries define a child as anyone below the
age of 16, hence the age group 10-15 years).

Construction materials of the dwelling

The information is derived from the question on “materials used for the roof, floor and wall.
Permanent floor materials include concrete, cement screed, tiles, wood, while permanent roof
materials include roof tiles, iron sheets, asbestos and concrete.

Status of dwelling
The permanency nature of construction materials determines the status of the dwelling. The
idea is to be able to classify a dwelling unit as temporary or permanent.

Access to community services

The choice of indicators is for those households that are beyond the 5 km radius for access to
services (access to public/private schools, health facilities and a police station/post). The
nearness of the service to the household does not take into consideration whether the services
are utilized by the household or not.

Other environmental conditions – waste disposal

Any household was considered to have proper waste disposal if at the time of the census it
disposed off solid waste using registered or unregistered waste vendors as well as using skip
bins provided by the Municipal authority.

iv
National Population and Housing Census 2014 Area Specific Profiles – Moroto District

Owner occupied dwellings

These are disaggregated by household headship. The percentages for male and female
headed households may not add up to 100. For instance among the female headed
households, what proportion are owner occupied? Among the male headed households, what
proportion are owner occupied?

Source of energy for lighting – electricity

In the household questionnaire, Question H14 had about four forms of electricity used for
lighting (grid, generator, solar, community/thermal plant). Any household that indicated using
any of the four forms was considered to have access to electricity.

Household based agricultural activities

A household engaged in agriculture is one which is engaged in any of the following:

Growing of any crops, or rearing animals or involved in bee keeping or forestry/tree growing,
and any fish farming. Agricultural activities outside the district were not considered.

INTRODUCTION

1.1 General Information about Uganda

Location and Size

Uganda is located in East Africa and lies across the equator, about 800 kilometres inland from
the Indian Ocean. It lies between Latitude 10 29’ South and 40 12’ North of the Equator as well
as Longitude 290 34’ East and 350 0’ East of Greenwich. The country is landlocked, bordered
by Kenya in the East; South Sudan in the North; Democratic Republic of Congo in the West;
Tanzania in the South; and Rwanda in South West. It has a total area of 241,551 square
kilometres, of which the land area covers 200,523 square kilometres.

Administration

The country was divided into 116 districts (as at August/September 2014). The districts were
further subdivided into 200 Counties, 1,378 Sub-counties and 6,495 Parishes. The role of these
administrative units is to implement and monitor government programmes at the respective
levels. Overtime, the administrative units have been sub-divided with the aim of easing
administration and improving the delivery of services.

1.2 About the National Population and Housing Census 2014

The overall objective of the National Population and Housing Census (NPHC) 2014 was to
provide data that are required for planning at all levels. The NPHC 2014 had three distinct
phases namely, the Preparatory Phases, the Enumeration Phase and the Post Enumeration
Phase.

The preparatory work for the Census 2014 started in 2008 with development of the overall
strategy of undertaking the census. Other preparatory activities included development of the
questionnaires, undertaking of the census mapping, conducting the Pilot Census, carrying out
the census advocacy and publicity and other administrative support services.

The enumeration phase included recruitment and training of field staff, delivery of enumeration
materials, conducting the main census enumeration and retrieval of materials. The census
activities in the district were conducted under the overall responsibility of the Chief
Administrative Officers (CAOs) or the Executive Director in the case of Kampala Capital City
Authority (KCCA). All field staff underwent mandatory ten (10) day training on Census concepts
and procedures.

The Census Reference Night was the night of 27th August 2014 and the enumeration was
conducted on a de facto basis. The enumeration started on 28th August and continued to 7th
September 2014. The Enumerators moved from household to household within the assigned

1
National Population and Housing Census 2014 Area Specific Profiles – Moroto District

Enumeration Areas (EAs) and administered the Census questionnaire to the Head of
household or any other assigned household member through face to face interviews.

The data processing was centrally managed at the Bureau offices. The filled questionnaires
were captured with scanning technology and the information extracted using automatic
character recognition.

Data quality assurance enhances credibility, usability and utility of data. The Post Enumeration
Survey (PES) was used as one of the tools to evaluate the quality of the census data through
testing the completeness of coverage and accuracy. The PES enumeration was undertaken in
October/November 2014, and it covered 800 EAs distributed in all the districts and Kampala
Capital City Authority (KCCA).

1.3 National Highlights of the 2014 Census Results

The results of the NPHC 2014 will be published in phases. The Provisional Census Results
were disseminated in November 2014. These gave the number of households and the
population by sex for administrative areas down to sub-county level. The first set of the final
results of the Census 2014 were published in the Main Report which was released in March
2016. The report includes information on the population size and distribution as well as
characteristics of the population and the dwellings they live in. The results showed that the total
population of Uganda in 2014 was 34.6 million persons as shown in Table 1.

Between 2002 and 2014, the population increased from 24.2 million to 34.6million.This implied
average growth rate of 3.0 percent per annum.

The distribution of the population among the districts is given in Appendix Table 1. Wakiso
district had a population of nearly two (2) million, accounting for about six percent of the total
population, while some districts were less populous, Kalangala district being the smallest with a
population of 53,406 persons. As of 2016, Uganda had a total of 259 urban centres with a total
2
National Population and Housing Census 2014 Area Specific Profiles – Moroto District

urban population of 7.5 million persons. Thus, 20.2 percent of the total population lived in urban
areas. Kampala Capital City was the most populous urban centre with 1.5 million persons.

Table 2 gives the distribution of the population by age. The Table shows that the population of
Uganda is quite young, with the proportion of children (below 15 years of age) being 47.9
percent, while the ‘Older persons’ (aged 60 years and above) constituted only 2.9 percent.

Characteristics of the Population

About 87 percent of the boys and girls of primary school going age (6-12 years) were attending
school, while about 1 in every 10 children of primary school going age children had never been
school. The Illiteracy status Rate was 72 percent among persons aged 10 years and above.
Out of the 17.7 million persons of working age (aged 14 to 64 years), 13.8 million (78 percent)
were working in the (Labour Force), with the most common occupation being subsistence
farming (65%).

Vulnerability can be assessed at personal and household level. At personal level, vulnerability
is a state of being in which a person is likely to be in a risky situation, suffering significant
physical, emotional, or mental harm that may result in his/her human rights not being fulfilled
(MoGLSD, 2004). The 2014 Census measured some of the dimensions of Child Vulnerability.
The results show high levels of vulnerability as highlighted below;

 One in every eight (12.5%) of children aged 6 – 12 Years were not in school;
 Two out of every 25 (8%) children less than 18 years of age were orphaned;
 One in every 16 (6% ) of the girls aged 12 to 17 years had already given birth;
 One in every 15 (6.5%) of the girls aged 12 – 17 had ever been in a marriage union;
 Seven out of every 10 Children (70%) aged less than five years did not have a Birth
certificate.

There was a general improvement in the demographics of the population with the Total Fertility
Rate falling to 5.8 children per woman while the infant Mortality Rate decreased to 53 deaths
per 1,000 live births. The Life Expectancy at Birth also increased to 63.3 years

Characteristics of the Households

The household population consisted of (99 percent of the total population.) The Census 2014
enumerated a total of 7.3 million households with a population of 34.1 million .This gave an
Average Household Size of 4.7.

The ‘Tadooba’ remained the most common source of lighting being used by 52 percent of the
households. Only one in every five households (20%) had access to electricity. On the other
hand, Wood fuel was the most common fuel used for cooking, with only six percent (one in
every 16) of the households using other fuels. Sanitation remains a challenge with only thirty
percent of the households with unimproved toilet facilities. About 600,000 households did not
have any toilet facility at all.

The majority of the households (69 percent) derived their livelihood from subsistence farming.
Only 27% of the households depended on earned income. One in every nine households
(11%) were having only one meal per day (for adults). Some of the households (11%) received
remittances from abroad in cash or in kind. More than two thirds of the households (69%) had
at least one member owning a Mobile phone. Ownership of a Mobile among persons aged 10

4
National Population and Housing Census 2014 Area Specific Profiles – Moroto District

years and above was at 38 percent. The radio remains a dominant source of information and
about 60 percent of the households owned a radio.

Housing Conditions

The housing sector recorded a general improvement. Overall, 67 percent of households in

Uganda resided in detached dwellings. However, nearly half (47%) households resided in
dwellings with only one room for sleeping. There was also significant improvement in the
materials used for construction of the dwellings. About 44% of the households resided in
dwellings constructed with permanent wall material. The equivalent shares for roof and floor
were 70 and 34 percent respectively.

Agricultural Activities

Agriculture has remained a dominant sector in the economy. The Census revealed that a total
of 5.8 million households engage in agriculture. More than two thirds (69 percent) of
households derived their livelihoods from subsistence farming as the main source of earning. In
terms of employment, the majority of the working population (65 percent) were subsistence
farmers.
