DDR activities in Uganda focused on repatriating and reintegrating “reporters”, or ex-rebels and/or ex-abductees from the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA). Other groups targeted were ex-members the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF), West Nile Bank Front (WNBF), FOBA/NOM, Uganda National Democratic Alliance Front (UDA/F) and the Uganda National Freedom Movement/Army (UNFM/A).

Since 2000, the Amnesty Commission is mandated by the Government of Uganda to support the demobilization and reintegration of ex-rebels. From 2004 to 2007, the Commission received a US$ 4.2 million grant from the MDRP. As a result, 16,256 individuals were demobilized, and reinsertion support was provided to 14,816 ex-combatants.

At the request of the Government, the World Bank established a new multi-donor trust fund in January 2008 in support of a follow-up project for the demobilization and reintegration of rebel combatants and their collaborators (budget: US$8.2 million from bilateral donors).  The program, which directly supported the work of the Amnesty Commission, closed in June 2011.

The TDRP continues to provide technical assistance to the Amnesty Commission to finalize evaluations and assessment of DDR activities.
