The European Commission and the National Authorising Officer in Uganda have issued this call for proposals under the Democratic Governance and Accountability Programme. The programme seeks to support the civil society and media organisations to build their capacities to be effective advocates and monitors of good governance and social accountability.
The overall objective of the programme is to support key governance objectives of Uganda’s development framework: a credible system of representation with well functioning political parties; an electoral system that guarantees regular free and fair elections; a system of checks and balances based on separation of powers; a vibrant civil society able to monitor governance and provide alternative forms of political participation; a free, strong and independent media.
An information session on this call for proposals is planned to be held on the following date and location: Kampala, 29th September 2010 at Imperial Royale, Kampala Hotel at 10.00 am. The session will be confirmed on the website of Ministry of Finance Planning and Economic Development http://www.finance.go.ug/ and also in the national press.
