Website: http://www.upf.go.ug Foreword by the Minister of Internal Affair The Vision of the Uganda Police Force is to provide an enlightened, motivated, community oriented, accountable and modern Police Force, geared towards a crime free society. This Strategic Policing Plan lays out strategies for pursuing the vision during the five years 2015/16 -2019/20. The development of the strategic plan has been guided by the priorities set out in the National Vision 2040, National Development Plan (NDP II), the Justice Law and Order Sector Investment Plan (SIP III) and the Eastern African and International protocols. The 2040 Vision envisages the consolidation, development and promotion of the prevailing peace and security that the country enjoys. Priority shall be placed on: Anti-terrorism measures at national, regional and global level Promoting public-private cooperation and civil/community involvement for improved safety and security. For this strategy, UPF emphases community policing; Deepening policy, legal and institutional reforms for improved enforcement of law and order. Here the UPF is undertaking amendments of the Police Act, and the Police Standing Orders. Promoting processes for national and inter-community dialogue among ethnic and other interest groups; and Peace building and reconciliation through increased access to information by the population. The National Development Plan (NDP II) 2015/16-2019/20 operationalises the vision 2040 through sector investment plans and Institutional strategic plans. This strategic plan will contribute to the JLOS sector targets of increasing: public confidence; public satisfaction in service delivery; and case disposal. The UPF consulted widely while developing this Strategic Plan and has included the key issues that are important to the community on the one hand, and to Government on the other hand, that will contribute to the NRM manifesto goal of Uganda attaining a middle income status by 2020. These key issues are reflective of the basic functions for which the UPF is responsible such as the protection of life and property; preservation of law and order; prevention and detection of crime; and cooperation with the civilian authority and other security organs and with the population generally. The UPF has also prioritized; community policing; neighbourhood watch; and partnerships with ix |UPF Strategic Policing Plan 2015/16-2019/2020 Uganda Police Headquarters, Naguru, Plot42/49, Katalina Road, P.

Website: http://www.upf.go.ug Statement by the Inspector General of Police It is an honour for me to introduce the first Strategic Policing Plan for the Uganda Police Force. This Strategic Policing Plan represents our vision for the future. It has been aligned to the JLOS Investment Plan and the National Development Plan II and covers the period 2015/2016 to 2019/2020. This strategic plan is a proactive tool designed to provide guidance to continually improve the delivery of policing services to the people of Uganda. It is translating the UPF’S vision, mission and values into goals and strategic objectives to effectively and efficiently allocate available resources to the most important needs of our community. It will be the basis for annual work plans and budgets and will provide a platform for performance measurement and accountability for the delivery of policing services. Accordingly, the following four strategic objectives will provide the direction for the next five years: Protection of Life and Property; Preservation of Law and Order; Prevention and Detection of Crime; and Institutional development, governance and management. Each of these objectives has strategic interventions that will be implemented in partnership with the community and stakeholders to make Uganda safe and secure. The Strategic Policing Plan is focused on securing Uganda to sustain the peaceful environment for the promotion of investments, economic growth and prosperity in the country, driving it into a middle income status by 2020. Community policing ideology and the strengthening of UPF’s capacity and capability will be the cornerstone for sustaining the declining trend of crime rate. I therefore call upon, the government, stakeholders and the Development Partners to commit to the implementation of this strategic plan, and support the UPF to deliver its mandate and contribute to the country’s target of attaining a middle income status by 2020, and to the realization of the National development goal of “A transformed Ugandan society from a peasant to a modern and prosperous country by 2040”. xi |UPF Strategic Policing Plan 2015/16-2019/2020 Uganda Police Headquarters, Naguru, Plot42/49, Katalina Road, P.

The process of developing the plan was highly participatory and consultative, involving all directorates, departments and specialized units of UPF, a section of the community, Development Partners, JLOS institutions and Civil Society Organisations.

  • Forced Displacement and Asylum Policy in the Developing World∗
    Forced Displacement and Asylum Policy in the Developing World∗ Christopher W. Blair,y Guy Grossman,z and Jeremy M. Weinstein,§ July 9, 2020 Abstract Little theoretical or empirical work examines migration policy in the developing world. We introduce an original dataset of de jure asylum and refugee policies covering more than 90 developing countries that are presently excluded from existing indices of migration policy. We examine descriptive trends in the data, and test the determinants of asylum policymaking, as well as the effects of asylum policies on forced displacement flows. Qualitative evidence from interviews in Uganda bolster our quantitative results. A number of key findings emerge. Intense, proximate civil wars are the primary impetus for asylum policy change in the Global South. While wealthier countries tend to carry out restrictive changes, liberalizing changes are made by regimes led by political elites whose ethnic kin confront discrimination or violence in neighboring countries. There is no systematic evidence that repressive regimes liberalize asylum policy in exchange for economic assistance from Western actors. Developing world asylum policy matters because more liberal policies attract more migrants. This effect is conditional on policy knowledge. Transnational ethnic linkages and mobile penetration facilitate the spread of information about asylum policies and ease integration. Liberal policies on access to services, employment rights, and free movement are particularly attractive. ∗Generous support for this research was provided by the Fels Policy Research Initiative at the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania, and the King Center on Global Development at Stanford University. We thank Sarah Bermeo, Maggie Peters, Jim Fearon, David Leblang, Beth Elise Whitaker, Michael Kenwick, and participants at the Penn Identity and Conflict Lab, the UNHCR-World Bank Group Joint Data Center on Forced Displacement, and the 2020 Annual Conference of the Southern Political Science Associa- tion for helpful comments and advice.

Since coming to power in 1986 the National Resistance Movement (NRM) was engaged in combat in northern Uganda until 2006 and in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) until 2003. Uganda has participated in some peacekeeping operations in the 1990s, including providing some troops and the Deputy Force Commander Brigadier (now Lt-Gen) Ivan Koreta to the UN Mission in Liberia. However it was only after national deployments post-2003 were drawn down that peacekeeping has become a major option for the Ugandan military.
