Through growing the economy, my government will provide better-paying jobs for the working population. A commission to review the minimum wage and the remuneration of public servants will also be undertaken in order to ensure that every Ugandan’s pay is fair. This will also reduce the growing brain drain statistics and high dependency burden.
Robust and growing SMEs and local industries will provide more opportunities for employment.
I will ensure that there is equitable distribution of entrepreneurs’ financing from government sources such as the Youth Livelihood Programme (YLP), Uganda Women Entrepreneurship Programme (UWEP) and the Innovations Fund.
Promote an entrepreneurial culture by providing platforms and opportunities for young entrepreneurs to receive mentorship and training on building and maintaining businesses for the long haul.
Establish a National Innovation Centre to incubate business ideas that will be funded either by financial institutions or government funds.
Encourage Foreign Direct Investors that focus on uplifting the livelihood of the population.
Ensure that only skilled labour, which cannot be supplied locally, is imported.
