The overall objective of the project was to have “a well-coordinated civil society influencing state actors’ responsiveness to transparency and accountability demands by the citizens.” The project addressed the weak functioning of the accountability chain institutions which has led to poor and incoherent detection, investigation, prosecution, and resolution of corruption in Uganda.
This was done by strengthening the coordination of CSO actors, strengthening local-to-national linkage, increasing citizen engagement and empowerment, and advocating for increased state responsiveness to citizen voices in the accountability process.
The project was implemented at the national level, with specific interventions in the following districts; Kampala, Hoima, Kibaale, Moroto, Nabilatuk, Iganga, Mayuge, Kalangala, Kalungu, Lira, Alebtong, Arua, and Maracha.
