CITIZEN VOICES ON PUBLIC SERVICE DELIVERY
Civil Society Organizations under the leadership of the Uganda National NGO Forum monitored performance of the NDP to generate citizen voices on the public service delivery. This was done in seven select NDP sectors: Agriculture; Markets and Cooperatives; Transport; Labour and Employment; Health; Water and Sanitation; Justice, Law and Order. The monitoring was carried out in 51 districts of Uganda which represent about one half of the districts in the country. The monitoring survey reached 20,400 households in all the districts covered.
What are the key findings of the report?
AGRICULTURE
• There is slow progress in Agricultural transformation from subsistence to commercial farming. Despite the gains registered under the National Agriculture Advisory Services (NAADs), only three in ten (27.4%) agricultural households were employing modern agricultural practices during the study period. This has led to slow progress in agricultural transformation from subsistence to commercial farming.
