THE CHALLENGE
Civil society organizations are key stakeholders in the development process of any country, unfortunately, their impact on the ground has been affected by their poor credibility. If we do not work on creating and developing them now, we are at risk of not having them at all in the future. According to the Daily Monitor (November 18, 2024), the number of registered NGOs in Uganda is drastically declined from 14,000 in 2019 to 5,021 by August 2023 and this has dealt a heavy blow to the economy that needs the sector for employment and financial inflows.
