The study aimed at three objectives which included; To examine the role of political decentralization in promoting good governance, challenges of political decentralization and establish the solutions to the challenges facing political decentralization in promoting good governance in Namutumba town council Namutumba district. The study applied both qualitative and quantitative research designs where interviews and questionnaires were used. Data was collected from both primary and secondary sources. Data was processed and analyzed using fonnal, tables, pie charts, narrative text and correction to find out the relationship between political decentralization and good governance. A total of 80 respondents were considered out of the entire population in Namutumba town council. The findings indicated that the nature and the magnitude of the political decentralization in the Namutumba town council include: Decentralization provides opportunities to marginalized sectors of the community, like women in some countries, minorities, political decentralization increases effectiveness in service delivery, Political decentralization provides bureaucrats with early warnings of potential disasters, enabling quick remedial action, challenges affecting political decentralization in promoting good governance these included the following among other factors; Specialists within broad disciplines create confusion by focusing, limited empirical evidence to support decentralization and clarify how to reap its potential benefits, in Uganda, most of the mayors have a difficulty to manage the communes and political environment is always unstable. The solutions to the challenges facing political decentralization included; Effective sensitization and participation of the public, training of the local elected members. Basing on findings recommendations involves; the government should invest more in the will to expand the political capacity necessary to implement and enforce the very comprehensive, further training is required for Local government authorities to and a consultative forum is recommended for the promoting good governance and the various agencies involved in management of public funds.

At that time, there were no minimum standards for the meaningful engagement of PLHIV, KVPs and CSOs and discussions with the U.S. government regarding Uganda’s COP would take place only in meetings at the U.S. Embassy. PLHIV, KVP and CSOs worked to ensure that the engagement processes became truly community- owned and community-led. They established a structured calendar, clear expectations of civil society and of PEPFAR Uganda, and a shared focus with PEPFAR Uganda on improving the accountability of the HIV response for communities and CSOs. This is the third edition of The People’s Voice; the first was facilities which are located in 28 districts (see Table A, page 3) published in 20191 and the second in 2020.2 Successes resulting during the CLM pilot phase (August-September 2020) and Focus from these efforts over the years include: introduction and scale Group Discussions (FGDs) with community representatives.

    Local Government Budget Framework Paper Vote: 605 Kibuku District Structure of Budget Framework Paper Foreword Executive Summary A: Revenue Performance and Plans B: Summary of Department Performance and Plans by Workplan C: Draft Annual Workplan Outputs for 2013/14 Page 1 Local Government Budget Framework Paper Vote: 605 Kibuku District Foreword In order to keep the development planning process of the District consistent with national policies,planning & budgeting is one way of documenting intervations in line with decentralisation frame work. The completion of the budget frame work process has set the foundation on which the planning and budgeting process for the financial year 2013/14 will be based & thus giving the opportunity to the local Government to identify projects which have a poverty focus approach and which are in harmony with the pillars of PEAP.While coming up with this BFP departments have had to refer to the bench marks set at the beginning of the financial year.This has therefore enabled the harmonisation of the District pririoties with the national ones, bearing in mind the result oriented management principle. The fact that this is an annual exercise, it is a reliable mechanism which provides a yard stick for realistic planning & budgeting in the local government and also provides a basis of comparision of the District achievements compared to national standards. The District is faced with a challenge of inadquate resources,there is need for our local Government to explore more into the existing and new sources of Local Revenue in order to ensure sustainability. Meanwhile we request the central Government to continue making available more resources to Kibuku District such that the gaps are filled in order to improve service delivery with the ultimate aim of reducing disparities and improving on the incomes and quality of life of our people.
