  • Bolstering Revenue, Building Fairness: Uganda Extends Tax Reach, 2014–2018 (Short Version)
    BOLSTERING REVENUE, BUILDING FAIRNESS: UGANDA EXTENDS TAX REACH, 2014–2018 (SHORT VERSION) BACKGROUND This summary draws on an ISS case In November 2014, Doris Akol took over as study with the same title can be found on commissioner general of the Uganda Revenue Authority the ISS website. Leon Schreiber drafted (URA), the semiautonomous body responsible for collecting the full case based on interviews all central government taxes. During the previous decade, conducted in Kampala, Uganda in January and February 2019. Case Akol had been part of the team that transformed the URA published April 2019. Summary from an unwieldy and corruption-riddled organization into a published in May 2019. modern operation that collected taxes effectively from most of the country’s formally registered payers. However, the earlier reforms had failed to significantly boost the country’s tax-to-GDP ratio to the government-mandated level of 16%—which was still lower than the 18% average for countries in sub-Saharan Africa. Large numbers of Ugandans paid nothing because they were unregistered or because inadequate compliance monitoring enabled them to underpay. The holes in the system bedeviled the URA’s efforts to improve tax collections and undermined public trust. Akol and her team identified Uganda’s large informal economy as a main reason that revenue growth lagged behind improved efficiency. In 2015, the government estimated that informal economic activities accounted for 49% of the country’s total GDP.1 And as a result of low registration rates among informally employed Ugandans, the number of registered taxpayers stood at only 632,279 at the end of the fiscal year that ended in June 20142—in a country of 38 million people.

    BOLSTERING REVENUE, BUILDING FAIRNESS: UGANDA EXTENDS ITS TAX REACH, 2014 – 2018 SYNOPSIS After a decade of reforms to boost tax collection, in 2014 the Uganda Revenue Authority (URA) faced up to one of its biggest remaining challenges. Although the agency had significantly improved its internal capacity—along with its ability to collect taxes from registered taxpayers—large numbers of Ugandans paid nothing because they were unregistered or because inadequate compliance monitoring enabled them to underpay. The holes in the system undermined public trust and bedeviled the URA’s efforts to meet the government-mandated target to raise tax revenue to 16% of gross domestic product. The URA then joined other government agencies to bring millions of unregistered citizens into the tax net, and it tightened the oversight of existing taxpayers who were paying less than their fair share. Prime targets were millions of Ugandans who worked in the informal economy, which the government said accounted for nearly half of the country’s economic activity. At the same time, the URA set up operations to go after wealthy and politically connected individuals who avoided paying their full tax load, and it created a separate unit to press government departments that failed to remit to the URA the taxes they collected, such as withholdings from employees. The URA’s program achieved strong gains on all three fronts and thereby helped increase the country’s tax-to-GDP ratio to 14.2% in the 2017–18 fiscal year from 11.3% in 2013–14. Just as important, the program made significant progress toward a fairer distribution of the tax burden for Ugandans across all economic levels.

  • The Power of Diversity
    The Power of Diversity A leadership and innovation lab hosted by the Global Leadership Academy, commissioned by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), and the Deep Democracy Institute. 1 The Power of Diversity The Deep Democracy Institute (DDI) and the Global Leadership Academy, the latter commissioned by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), are introducing a new leadership and innovation lab called ‘The Power of Diversity’. This lab brings together leaders and change agents working in social, academic, business and political contexts around the world to hone their real-time leadership skills, support and coach their organisations, teams, stakeholders and (potential) partners in generating new outcomes and embark on creative ventures. Overview In today’s world, polarisation seems to be a growing phenomenon that is creating unbridgeable divides. Governments, businesses, political institutions and religions are struggling to create a joint global vision for dealing with challenges such as climate change, energy shortages, and economic, environmental, political and religious polarisation. ‘The Power of Diversity’ explores new ways of bridging divides and harnessing the inherent power that exists in diverging and converging trends. It is a leadership and innovation lab which goes beyond traditional approaches of dealing with power and diversity by introducing concepts and practical interventions based on modern physics, the science of complexity and cutting-edge psychology. It includes a new approach to awareness training on rank and privileges, and trains leaders and change agents not only to manage diversity and power processes, but also to harness and develop their potential. They will learn to facilitate large, diverse groups of leaders from different countries and sectors, and to exploit their enormous potential.
