Chapter Four of the Cons� tu� on cons� tutes Uganda’s Bill of Rights. However, most Ugandans know very li� le about this document, let alone other interna� onal instruments on human rights. To address this knowledge gap, Uganda as party to the United Na� ons proclama� on in 2004 of the World Programme for Human Rights Educa� on (WPHRE) and the Plan of Ac� on for the First Phase of the WPHRE (2005-2007) commi� ed itself to promo� ng HRE. Subsequently, the Ministry of Educa� on and Sports in 2008 developed a concept paper on the implementa� on of the WPHRE in Uganda. In support of this process, the UNATCOM undertook to conduct a study in 2011 to establish the status of HRE in primary and post-primary educa� onal ins� tu� ons in Uganda as well as to assess exis� ng teaching and learning materials on HRE. This report presents the fi ndings of the study and the input of key stakeholders in educa� on as to how they would like to see human rights educa� on implemented in Uganda. The report also provides a dra� Na� onal Implementa� on Strategy for HRE for primary and post-primary ins� tu� ons in Uganda. We hope this report will be of value to educators, policy makers and anyone interested in promo� ng a culture of human rights in Uganda. As Uganda celebrates the golden jubilee of independence, it is important to secure a solid base for the development of a culture of human rights.

The study relates the present patterns and organization of elementary and secondary level educational provision to the existing and projected population distribution. Population density is seen as a crucial variable affecting the choice of strategy for the development of the school map. Basic techniques of locational analysis are used to suggest a policy for expanding the elementary level system and to identify suitable locations for new secondary level schools.
