  2. TIU Strategy 2012 - 2016 “Improving the Quality of Life of Ugandans through Improved Governance and Accountability”

  3. The Big Picture • Before we built our plan, we examined the big picture • We discussed how the major trends could impact stakeholders in TIU’s space in the next 5 years. • We charted the major threats and opportunities that the stakeholders could create in our space

  4. We identified our achievements • Carried out monitoring of political party financing during the 2006 general elections in Uganda. Lessons learnt from this intervention have informed the partnership and design of a joint election monitoring programme • In July 2008 Transparency International Uganda commenced implementation of its flagship health programme, Transparency and Integrity in Service Delivery in Africa (TISDA) that aimed at improving the quality of life of Ugandans through better governance in the health sector

  5. … our achievements • In the education sector, Transparency International Uganda implemented the Africa Education Watch. TIU completed studies on corruption in the primary education sub sector. The results were used to design and implement advocacy activities to improve governance in the sub sector. • With funding from Partnership for Transparency Fund (PTF), Transparency International Uganda successfully implemented a one year (September 2008-December 2009) community empowerment programme to address corruption in Rakai District, Central Uganda

  6. … our achievements • The Danida Human Rights and Good Governance Programme (HUGGO) facilitated TIU’s institutional strengthening initiatives. Among others, TIU designed a website, trained staff, developed a new strategic plan and maintained key functions of the office running. HUGGO funding was vital in attracting addition funds for TIU programmes.

Major future opportunities • International and national anti-corruption policies and strategies. • Conducive legal and institutional framework for fighting corruption. • Availability of donor funding to anti-corruption organizations and institutions. • Comprehensive legal and policy framework to combat corruption. • Supportive anti-corruption institutions.
