Title: Technical Specialist (Governance)
Organisation: United Nations Development Programme (UNDP)
City Kampala,
Country Uganda
Background:
Over the past two decades Uganda has made important strides both in the socioeconomic and the political arenas, with significant progress being made in achieving the MDGs, as well as in securing peace and stability throughout the country. In the political sphere, Uganda transitioned to a multiparty democracy in 2005, after amending the 1995 Constitution to allow for the direct participation of political parties in the electoral process. These reforms have since led to an opening of political space in the country, with multiparty elections for the presidency and Parliament being held twice, in 2006 and 2011.
While these reforms have paved the way for the consolidation of multiparty democracy in Uganda, most analysts agree that additional efforts are necessary to strengthen Uganda’s institutional architecture for political dialogue, mediation and consensus-building. Advancing political reform in this direction is expected to bolster confidence in the electoral process in the country, by enabling political differences emerging from such processes to be settled and channeled through trusted institutional channels, thus minimizing the risk that they spill over into episodes of heightened political tension, public expressions of discontent or social unrest.
