The Ministry of Finance, Planning & Economic Development, in partnership with IGC Uganda, organises the Economic Growth Forum – a high-level conference on Uganda’s economy held regularly since 2017. The conference provides an opportunity to discuss key growth challenges, learn from policy experiences in other countries, and identify a course of actions to drive accelerated and inclusive growth in Uganda. The theme for the sixth Forum is ‘Building a self-sustaining economy to weather future shocks’.
