This presentation explores how Taiwan can adopt Regulatory Impact Assessment (RIA) in its policy-making by learning from Uganda's experience with the Poverty Eradication Action Plan (PEAP). Uganda's journey highlights key areas: governance, policy consultation, and implementation challenges. The study contrasts Taiwan's strong governance and institutional frameworks with Uganda's past mistakes, emphasizing the importance of commitment, consistent dialogue, and effective planning. By analyzing Uganda’s challenges, we propose actionable strategies for Taiwan to ensure RIA effectively supports its policy development processes.
