Uganda has achieved a moderate score in implementing the 2019 EITI Standard (78.5 points). The overall score reflects an average of the three component scores on Stakeholder engagement, Transparency, and Outcomes and impact. Uganda has made strides in improving transparency and accountability in its oil and mining sector by establishing a robust multi-stakeholder platform and undertaking reforms to its Minerals Act. The Board commends Uganda EITI (UGEITI) for its outreach efforts, including publishing summary reports and dissemination activities in extractives regions. Coverage in the press, radio and TV programmes are the result of the implementation of its communications strategy and outreach plan and active use of the UGEITI website.
