"Maono yetu ya kutokomeza umaskini yanaweza kufanikiwa ikiwa yatajumuisha kila mtu bila kujali Rangi au Jinsia, Sheria hii inadhoofisha juhudi hizo. Kujumuika na kutobaguliwa ndio msingi wa kazi yetu duniani kote.” Inasomeka sehemu ya taarifa hiyo.
Juni 2023, Marekani iliweka Vikwazo vya Kusafiri kwa Maafisa wa Uganda ikiwa ni kujibu hatua za Rais Museveni kusaini Sheria hiyo inayotoa Kifungo cha hadi miaka 20 kwa kosa la Kushawishi Mapenzi ya Jinsia Moja.

The World Bank Group today released the following statement on Uganda:
“Uganda’s Anti-Homosexuality Act fundamentally contradicts the World Bank Group’s values. We believe our vision to eradicate poverty on a livable planet can only succeed if it includes everyone irrespective of race, gender, or sexuality. This law undermines those efforts. Inclusion and non-discrimination sit at the heart of our work around the world.
Immediately after the law was enacted, the World Bank deployed a team to Uganda to review our portfolio in the context of the new legislation. That review determined additional measures are necessary to ensure projects are implemented in alignment with our environmental and social standards. Our goal is to protect sexual and gender minorities from discrimination and exclusion in the projects we finance. These measures are currently under discussion with the authorities.
No new public financing to Uganda will be presented to our Board of Executive Directors until the efficacy of the additional measures has been tested.
Third-party monitoring and grievance redress mechanisms will significantly increase, allowing us to take corrective action as necessary.
The World Bank Group has a longstanding and productive relationship with Uganda; and we remain committed to helping all Ugandans—without exception—escape poverty, access vital services, and improve their lives.
