The broad new reform agenda for development -2
Monday February 15 2021
For many years, the National Resistance Movement (NRM) has promised variously to lead Uganda to prosperity for all, to create wealth, foster national unity and peace, deliver the country to middle income status, thus pursue socio-economic transformation.
After three decades in power, there are many who now look back on those promises for transformation more critically.
The second reform agenda, after democratisation, may concern development and what it means to Ugandans. As a student of development, the most frustrating thing to grasp remains the meaning of development and its multiplicity.
