The Republic of Uganda Decent Work Country Programme 2013- 2017

"The Ministry of Gender, Labour and Social Development, the National Organisation of Trade Unions, the Central Organization of Free Trade Unions, and the Federation of Uganda Employers and the ILO have developed the Uganda’s DWCP 2013-17, which identifies three key priorities:

1. Improved labour administration and adherence to fundamental rights and labour standards
2. Promotion of youth employment
3. Improved social protection for formal and informal sector workers.

The DWCP 2013-17 builds on activities, such as HIV/AIDS, employment creation, women’s entrepreneurship development, labour relations, youth entrepreneurship and the elimination of worst forms of child labour that were implemented under the DWCP, 2006-11. The priorities are in line with the National Development Plan and the UNDAF."
