Mr Frank Mugabi, the ministry’s communications officer, said the programme has been performing well under Gender.
Mr Mugabi said the programme has created jobs for women and more than 587,755 dependents have benefited through multiplier effects at household, community and macro levels.
“UWEP is a women economic empowerment programme that fits within the mandate of the Ministry of Gender. Research has established that once programming is generalised, women tend to withdraw from such programmes,” Mr Mugabi said.

The International Women’s Day is both a celebration of women’s achievements and an opportunity to assess what obstacles remain in the way of progress towards gender equality.
Uganda has a reason to celebrate, as it prides in having made interventions that have empowered women politically, economically and socially over the years.
Politically, the empowerment of women by establishment of women councils, institutionalising certain positions at parliamentary and local council leadership foras for women has enhanced and normalised women’s participation in governance.
It is, therefore, not surprising that a number of government parastatals, NGOs and private sector firms are now managed by women. The government’s policy of affirmative action has gone a long way in socio-economic empowerment of women.
