Towards a collaborative multi-stakeholder framework for Uganda’s development.
In January 2025, Uganda’s Parliament approved the National Development Plan IV, emphasizing the need for stronger public-private partnerships and greater involvement of non-state actors. The 2025 Philanthropy Forum Uganda convening echoed this vision, calling for a bold shift toward collaborative, people-powered development. With reflections from key leaders, including CivSource Legacy Foundation’s Catherine Mutesi Mugabo, the forum challenged stakeholders to align resources, co-create solutions, and rethink aid and accountability for lasting impact.
