The World Bank on Monday cancelled funding for a Uganda transport initiative, citing environmental concerns and allegations of sexual misconduct by contractors working on the project.
The cancelation, a rarity for the development bank, came after an early review of the Uganda Transport Sector Development Project (TSDP) uncovered numerous problems, the bank said.
