Networking IV FOREWORD Over the years, the Government has implemented a number of interventions that have led to substantial progress in economic growth and national development which is now projected at 6.3% this Financial Year 2018/19 up from 6.1% attained last Financial Year 2017/18. As Government continues to pursue strategies for sustained growth and development, we should step up efforts in monitoring government programs and projects, to ensure that they are implemented in time and cost and any obstacles identified and addressed. This report from the Budget Monitoring and Accountability Unit points to fair performance among the sectors monitored. It shows that most sectors achieved between 60%-79% of their planned semi-annual output targets. The fair performance points to the need for proper planning and commencement of procurement processes in time. This has resulted in slow absorption of funds and ultimately inadequate service delivery. The sectors now have a quarter of the financial year to make good the promises made in terms of output and outcome targets. This is to urge all sectors to review the report and take necessary corrective actions to ensure effectiveness by end of the financial year. V EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction The sector comprises of 15 central Votes that is; Ministry of Education and Sports (MoES- Vote 013), Education Service Commission (Vote 132), Makerere University (Vote 136), Mbarara University (Vote 137), Makerere University Business School (Vote 138), Kyambogo University (Vote 139), Uganda Management Institute, (UMI-Vote 140), Gulu University (Vote 149), Busitema University (Vote 111), Muni University (Vote 127), Uganda National Examination Board (UNEB – Vote 128), Lira University (Vote 301), National Curriculum Development Centre (NCDC-Vote 303), Soroti University (Vote 308) and Kabale University (Vote 307). In addition, the Sector has transfers to Local Governments (LGs) including Kampala Capital City Authority KCCA (Votes 501-580). The transfers include five LG grants namely; the District Primary Education including the School Facilities Grant (SFG); the District Secondary School grant; the District Tertiary Institutions Grant; the District Health Training Schools Grant and KCCA Education Grant.

    Uganda 2015 Human Rights Report

    UGANDA 2015 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Uganda is a constitutional republic led since 1986 by President Yoweri Museveni of the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) party. Voters re-elected Museveni to a fourth five-year term and returned an NRM majority to the unicameral Parliament in 2011. While the election marked an improvement over previous elections, it was marred by irregularities. Civilian authorities generally maintained effective control over the security forces. The three most serious human rights problems in the country included: lack of respect for the integrity of the person (unlawful killings, torture, and other abuse of suspects and detainees); restrictions on civil liberties (freedoms of assembly, expression, the media, and association); and violence and discrimination against marginalized groups, such as women (sexual and gender-based violence), children (sexual abuse and ritual killing), persons with disabilities, and the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and intersex (LGBTI) community. Other human rights problems included harsh prison conditions, arbitrary and politically motivated arrest and detention, lengthy pretrial detention, restrictions on the right to a fair trial, official corruption, societal or mob violence, trafficking in persons, and child labor. Although the government occasionally took steps to punish officials who committed abuses, whether in the security services or elsewhere, impunity was a problem. Section 1. Respect for the Integrity of the Person, Including Freedom from: a. Arbitrary or Unlawful Deprivation of Life There were several reports the government or its agents committed arbitrary or unlawful killings. On September 8, media reported security forces in Apaa Parish in the north shot and killed five persons during a land dispute over the government’s border demarcation.

The risk of flooding is increasing globally due partly to climate change which enhances the number of weather extremes like excessive rainfalls or droughts. This increase in flood events is also a response to land use changes; as more people use the land for agriculture and housing the percentage of less pervious and impervious area increases.
