The UK-Uganda Trade Summit went ahead on Saturday 10th September under difficult circumstances. The President, as a mark of respect, including senior government officials chose not to participate in the event, however as a credit to the organisers, the panel discussions were still insightful and informative with valuable input from private sector actors and essentially if UK-Uganda trade and investment is to further increase, the private sector needs to drive this over and above any government intervention from either side.

The President was to give an overview on government initiatives, incentives and strategies to attract investments and what Uganda has to offer to UK investors.

H.E. The President was to announce Key Projects:
– £100m Kitgum – Kidepo Road supported by UKEF
– Construction of Standard Gauge Railway Project (£1.5bn – TBC)
– £270m electricity export transmission line to DRC (Gridworks)

Was to sign an MoU Signing Ceremony

The event proceeded during a challenging period, we were privileged to have a video message by Hon. Janet K. Museveni, The 1st Lady and Minister of Education & Sports.

Due to the passing of Queen Elizabeth II and as a mark of respect, senior government officials, including Ugandan President HE Yoweri Kaguta Museveni chose not to participate in the event, however as a credit to the organisers, the panel discussions were still insightful and informative with valuable input from private sector actors and essentially if UK-Uganda trade and investment is to further increase, the private sector needs to drive this over and above any government intervention from either side.

Working in partnership with PACED|D.

The Presidential Advisory Committee on Exports and Industrial Development (PACEID) commissioned by H.E. President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni on March 16th, 2022, at Nakasero State Lodge, to act as a Think Tank to advise H.E the President, on strategic and systemic interventions aimed at accelerating exports growth and industrial development for national transformation.
PACEID is tasked to advise H.E the President on practical ways of addressing strategic and operational bottlenecks that impede Uganda from fully harnessing its industrial and export potential.
Export promotion,
We are focusing on doubling Uganda’s total exports from the current USD 6.6298 Bn to USD 12 Bn by 2026. It proposes how we must as a Country agree to generate the necessary consensus across key institutions of Government, Exporters, Producers, Lawmakers, Technical staff and all categories of leaders on very deliberate actions to make Exports a key growth weapon, one that we all keenly understand as we do for security.

Communication
We aim to bridge the gap of information flow between government and the public, by taking use of the existing communication platforms i.e., Social media, TV and Radio stations and print media (Newspapers). Our focus is based on the following:
1) Conveying and sharing information, primarily for the purpose of presenting and explaining government decisions and actions, promoting the legitimacy of these interventions, defending recognized values and helping to maintain social bonds.

2) Reaching the right audiences; People hear and react to information differently. Even if a government were to say the same thing to two different groups, the people in those audiences would not necessarily respond in the same manner. So, choosing the appropriate audience, such as age group, helps you determine the content. The more specific the audience is, the more customized the information can be.
We conduct international media interviews with H.E the President and investors, to discuss particularly on number of issues include:
1) Domestic and regional politics
2) Regional security and Uganda’s prominent role as a regional security hub among others

Enterprise development,
We are strengthening entrepreneurial management skills through capacity building and training resources to foster adoption of good workplace practices in micro-, small and large enterprises.
In the area of management training, THE OFFICE OF THE SENIOR PRESIDENTIAL ADVISER (SPECIAL DUTIES) has training tools that cover the whole spectrum of target groups, from illiterate micro entrepreneurs to growth oriented small and medium scale entrepreneurs.
