• Working in Teams Living conditions and remarks As Uganda’s main international airport is located in Entebbe, it serves as the primary entry point for international travellers. It offers direct connections to and from major global and regional destinations, including Addis Ababa, Amsterdam, Brussels, Cairo, Dar es Salaam, Dubai, Johannesburg, Juba, Kigali, Kinshasa, London, Nairobi, and others. Entebbe is a family duty station and serves as the logistical and administrative support hub for MONUSCO. Located on the shores of Lake Victoria, it offers a safe and comfortable living environment with good-quality accommodation, reliable electricity and water, supermarkets, banks, restaurants, medical facilities, and internet services. Rental costs are moderate by international standards, while imported goods may be relatively expensive. Entebbe International Airport is connected to Kampala via the modern Entebbe–Kampala Expressway, which significantly reduces travel time between the airport and the capital. Entebbe and Kampala are currently classified under UN Security Level III (moderate), reflecting a stable but cautious operating environment requiring adherence to standard security risk management measures. This level indicates that while the overall environment is permissive for operations, personnel should remain vigilant and comply with security advisories. The Security Management Team (SMT), along with other entities within the UN security management system (such as wardens), meets regularly to monitor the security situation and ensure preparedness. The Security Section, in coordination with the Department of Safety and Security (UNDSS), provides regular updates and conducts mandatory security briefings for newly arrived personnel, including updates on political, social, and operational developments. Movement advisories (e.g. on night travel along certain routes) may be issued periodically based on risk assessments. A Level 1 clinic is available at the United Nations Regional Service Centre Entebbe, and several UN-approved private hospitals are located in Kampala. Certain vaccinations are mandatory for entry into Uganda, including yellow fever. While verification at the airport is not always consistently enforced, travellers may still be required to present proof of vaccination upon arrival. All UN personnel must therefore ensure that vaccinations are up to date and properly documented in the International Certificate of Vaccination (yellow card). Entebbe is designated as a family duty station for UN personnel. International schools, healthcare facilities, and recreational amenities are available in Kampala and, to a lesser extent, in Entebbe. Markets and supermarkets are also readily accessible. Multiple mobile network providers operate across Uganda, and SIM cards and airtime are widely available. UN personnel have access to office internet and telephone services, including the option to make personal calls using a PIN-based system on a cost-recovery basis. Entebbe enjoys a mild tropical climate year-round and provides a high standard of living compared with most MONUSCO field locations in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. {{waiting}} This position is no longer open.
