Strong and well-financed social protection systems are essential to ensure they receive the support and services they deserve.

I received members of the Uganda Parliamentary Forum on Social Protection, the Parliamentary Forum on Persons with Disabilities, and partners from @UNICEFUganda as well as @CSBAGUGANDA for a discussion on funding for the National Child Disability Assistance Programme. Our discussion focused on the importance of sustained and adequate financing to support children with disabilities and their families. We reflected on the daily challenges parents and caregivers face in providing care, treatment and protection for children with disabilities, often under difficult economic conditions. I reaffirmed my commitment to the cause and assured the delegation of my full support, as well as Parliament’s continued support in advancing policies and securing resources that promote the welfare, dignity, and inclusion of children with disabilities.

Children with disabilities and their families often experience poverty and social exclusion due to multiple, interrelated factors.

@bwiite: The budget for @Mglsd_UG has been significantly reduced to UGX 364 Billion. There is a decline in labour and employment services which undermines effective social protection interventions for informal sector workers.

@NangosiDavid from @NUDIPU notes that children with disabilities live in abject poverty. While efforts have been put in place in form of several social protection programs, we still do not have any for children with disabilities.
