The government has retaliated with the urgent need to fast-track on key priorities on sustaining productivity in the economy in a bid to grow the GDP from 500 billion from the current 50 billion shillings.
This is according to the minister of state for Finance, Planning, and Economic Development in charge of general duties. The Minister spoke at the opening ceremony of the two-day 8th High-Level Economic Forum organized by the Ministry of Finance and Economic Development at the Kampala Serena Hotel.
The forum running under the theme, “Seizing opportunities for structural transformation to increase productivity and resilience” Advertisement” seeks to examine how Uganda can seize opportunities for structural transformation to increase productivity and resilience amid uncertainties posed by reduced capital flows, rising global interest rates, global protectionism, and geopolitical tensions as well as long-term risks associated with climate change.
