Uganda Science, Technology and Innovation Policy Review

The Uganda Science, Technology and Innovation Policy Review supports Ugandan development aspirations which require that its national science, technology and innovation (STI) plans and programmes make an effective contribution to its social and economic development. Strengthening national innovation performance is required to improve the competitiveness of Ugandan firms and industries competing in the global economy. Furthermore, like all other countries, Uganda is facing the challenges of Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Here, as well, technology and innovation are increasingly important factors of success.
