CAA Master Plan
CIVIL AVIATION AUTHORITY 2017/18 - 2021/22 BUSINESS PLAN Theme: “Linking Uganda to the World through Air Transport” DecemberDecember 2013 201 6 i FOREWORD Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) was established by an Act of Parliament (Cap 354) in 1991 with the main objective of promoting the safe, regular, secure and efficient use and development of civil aviation inside and outside Uganda. The Authority is mandated to carry out the following functions: a) Advisory role to Government in relation to civil aviation policy matters and international conventions and other functions as deemed necessary by the Minister responsible for aviation b) Regulation of safety, security and doing business in air transport c) Management and development of major airports in the country d) Provision of air traffic and navigation services. The CAA Act requires the Authority to produce a five-year rolling Business Plan to guide its operations and investments. The Authority therefore must use a holistic approach in planning for all the functions mentioned above. CAA must scan and analyze its business and operating environment to be able to come up with the right strategies for the future. This is CAA’s 26th Business Plan whose implementation will commence on 1st July 2017. Emphasis will again be put on the upgrade, expansion and modernization of airport infrastructure especially for Entebbe International Airport. The Authority will continue to implement the Corrective Action Plans that resulted from the ICAO Coordinated Validation Mission (ICVM) and other audits by various International Aviation Bodies. The needs (facility adequacy, efficiency and service excellence) of our stakeholders are always crucial during the planning and implementation of airport projects. -

The Acholi Religious Leaders' Peace Initiative in The
THE ACHOLI RELIGIOUS LEADERS’ PEACE INITIATIVE IN THE BATTLEFIELD OF NORTHERN UGANDA An Example of an integral, inculturated and ecumenical Approach to Pastoral Work in a War Situation Diplomarbeit zur Erlangung des Magistergrades an der Theologischen Fakultät der Leopold-Franzens-Universität Innsbruck vorgelegt von: eingereicht bei: Fakultätsstudienleiter: Robert Lukwiya Ochola, MCCJ Univ.-Prof. Dr. Reinhard Messner betreut von: Univ.-Prof. Dr. Franz Weber, MCCJ Innsbruck, Juni 2006 ‘Let us be proud that we were able to ultimately rise above our intense political and other differences in a renewed determination as a people to foster dialogue instead of violence, promote unity rather than disharmony, and engender hope rather than disillusionment and despair.’ Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf President of Liberia (First African Woman President) Suffering is the law of human beings; war is the law of the jungle. But suffering is infinitely more powerful than the law of the jungle for converting the opponent and opening his ear, which are otherwise shut to the voice of reason. Nobody has probably drawn up more petitions or espoused more forlorn causes than I and I have come to this fundamental conclusion that if you want something really important to be done you must not merely satisfy the reason, you must move the heart also. The appeal of reason is more to the head but the penetration of the heart comes from suffering. It opens up the inner understanding in man. Suffering is the badge of the human race, not the sword. Mohandas K. Gandhi II To my parents and all women and men who yearn and work for peace, especially members, friends and well-wishers of the Acholi Religious Leaders’ Peace Initiative: Shalom! III Acknowledgments I would like to thank all who have contributed to make me reach this moment of my life.
