National Action Plan for Child Well-Being (2016-2021)

In this National Action Plan for Child Well-Being, Uganda sets out the goals, plans, and actions needs to improve child well-being in Uganda.

In Uganda, 62 per cent of persons living in poverty are children, 33 per cent of children under 5 are stunted, and only 37 per cent of children make it to secondary education.

Uganda’s overarching goal is to become a prosperous country by mid-century.  Leaders realize that this cannot be achieved without addressing child poverty, development, health, and education.
